A lipase gene (atl) was cloned from Aspergillus tamarii FS132 for the first time. The gene was found to have an open reading frame of 1024 base pairs (bp), and the coding region of the gene contained two introns (51 bp and 52 bp). Multi-alignment analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence indicated high homology between the enzyme and mono-and diacylglycerol lipases from fungi Aspergillus. The...

Lytic enzymes are widely used in industrial biotechnology as they are able to hydrolyze the bacterial cell wall. One application of these enzymes is the clarification of the culture broth for the production of xanthan gum, because of its viability in viscous media and high specificity. The screening process for filamentous fungi producing lytic enzymes, the optimization of production of these e...

The effect of glucose and other soluble sugars (xylose, fructose, maltose, cellobiose and lactose) in the production of amylases by Aspergillus tamarii was studied in solid state fermentation (SSF). Wheat bran solid state cultures were resistant to catabolite repression even at high concentration of glucose (10%). Results show the potential of solid state systems to overcome the adverse effects...
