A recombinant form of the sweet-tasting protein thaumatin has been produced in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger var. awamori. Expression cassettes containing a synthetic gene encoding thaumatin II were prepared and used to transform Aspergillus niger var. awamori strain NRRL312. Several fungal strains capable of synthesizing and secreting thaumatin into the culture medium were generated,
and their production capabilities were determined, first in shake flasks and later in a laboratory fermentor. We report the
expression and secretion of thaumatin in concentrations of 5–7 mg/l. This recombinant thaumatin is sweet.

Alkaline degradation of Aurasperone A, C32H26O10, gave a binaphthyl (IIa), m.p. 255°C and acetone. (IIa) afforded a tetraacetate (IIb), C32H30O12 m.p. 219°C and a tetramethyl ether (IId), C28H30O8, m.p. 188°C. These facts along with the NMR spectra of aurasperone A and (IIb) confirm that aurasperone A is a dimeric 2-methyl-5-hydroxy-6,8-dimethoxy-4H-naphtho[2,3-b]pyran-4-one with asymmetric C-C linkage (7-10′ or 9-10′). The ether (IId) is not identical with 1,1′ ,3,3′ ?6,6′ ,8,8′-octamethoxy-4,4′-binaphthyl. Thus, it follows that (IId) is a 2,4′-binaphthyl and hence aurasperone A is 2,2′-dimethyl-5,5′- dihydroxy-6,6′,8,8′-tetrahydroxy-7,10′-bi[4H-naphtho[2,3-b]pyran-4-one] (I). 相似文献

From mycelia of Asp. niger and Asp. awamori aurasperones A, B and C along with related two yellow pigments have been isolated.Aurasperone A, C32H26O10, is obtained in yellow prisms; m.p. 207°C; [α]d —136°; gives the diacetate and the dimethyl ether and is assumed to be a dimeric 2-methyl-5- hydroxy-6,8-dimethoxy-4H-naphtho [2,3-b] pyran-4-one (IV). Aurasperone B, [α]D +46.3°, is the main yellow metabolite, m.p. 186°C, and affords aurasperone A on hydrochloric acid-treatment. It has molecular formula C32H30O12 and is supposed to have the structure (V). The other yellow pigments have been found to be also congeners of aurasperone A. 相似文献

Aspergillus section Nigri is an important group of species for food and medical mycology, and biotechnology. The Aspergillus niger 'aggregate' represents its most complicated taxonomic subgroup containing eight morphologically indistinguishable taxa: A. niger, Aspergillus tubingensis, Aspergillus acidus, Aspergillus brasiliensis, Aspergillus costaricaensis, Aspergillus lacticoffeatus, Aspergillus piperis, and Aspergillus vadensis. Aspergillus awamori, first described by Nakazawa, has been compared taxonomically with other black aspergilli and recently it has been treated as a synonym of A. niger. Phylogenetic analyses of sequences generated from portions of three genes coding for the proteins β-tubulin (benA), calmodulin (CaM), and the translation elongation factor-1 alpha (TEF-1α) of a population of A. niger strains isolated from grapes in Europe revealed the presence of a cryptic phylogenetic species within this population, A. awamori. Morphological, physiological, ecological and chemical data overlap occurred between A. niger and the cryptic A. awamori, however the splitting of these two species was also supported by AFLP analysis of the full genome. Isolates in both phylospecies can produce the mycotoxins ochratoxin A and fumonisin B?, and they also share the production of pyranonigrin A, tensidol B, funalenone, malformins, and naphtho-γ-pyrones. In addition, sequence analysis of four putative A. awamori strains from Japan, used in the koji industrial fermentation, revealed that none of these strains belong to the A. awamori phylospecies. 相似文献

Aspergillus niger var. awamori has transposable elements that we refer to as Vader and Tan1 (transposon A. niger). Vader was identified by screening unstable nitrate reductase (niaD) mutants for insertions. Four of the isolated niaD mutants were shown to contain a small insertion element. This 437?bp insertion element, Vader, is flanked by 44?bp inverted repeats (IR) and is present in approximately 15 copies in the genomes of two A. niger strains examined. A synthetic 44?bp oligomer of the inverted repeat of Vader has now been used to clone, via the polymerase chain reaction, a 2.3?kb Tan1 element. The Tan1 element has also been isolated from a partial genomic library. Tan1 is present as a single copy in A. niger var. awamori. The Tan1 element has a unique organization: IR-ORF-IR-IR-Vader-IR. The single open reading frame (ORF) (1668?bp) encodes a putative transposase homologous to Fusarium oxysporum Fot1 and Magnaporthe grisea Pot2. Immediately 3′ to the second inverted repeat, which bounds the transposase, is a copy of the AT-rich Vader element. We hypothesize that at some stage the independent Vader element, although inactive by itself, arose from Tan1, resulting in current strains with only one copy of Tan1 providing transposase activity and numerous mobile copies of Vader dispersed in the genome. 相似文献

Segregation of diploid strains by a haploidizing agent was used to improve citric acid producing strains of Aspergillus niger. Stable diploid strains were obtained via protoplast fusion between two citric acid-producing strains from different genealogies, one for shaking culture and the other for solid culture. Diploid strains were treated by benomyl as a haploidizing agent, and many segregants were obtained. Prototrophic segregants were selected and their haploidy was confirmed by their conidial size and DNA contents. The prototrophic segregants were very variable in their citric acid productivities, some of them better either in shaking culture or in solid culture than both the parental strains. The presence of methanol stimulated citric acid production by the parental and the diploid strains. However, all prototrophic segregants derived from one diploid strain had higher productivities in solid cultures without methanol than in those with methanol. 相似文献

Hyphal walls of Aspergillus awamori containing increased amount of the alpha-glucan, nigeran, became correspondingly more opaque when viewed in the electron microscope as shadowed preparations. However, increased polymer deposition was not accompanied by any significant change in wall thickness. The nigeran of both A. awamori and Aspergillus niger occurred in situ in a crystalline conformation identical to that of single crystals prepared with pure polysaccharide. Furthermore, this polymer was the dominant crystalline material in the hyphae whether or not they were enriched in nigeran. Enzymic digestion of nigeran in A. niger and A. awamori revealed that the bulk of the polymer was exposed to the cell's exterior. However, a certain fraction was accessible to enzymic attack only after the wall was treated with boiling water. A third portion, detectable only by x-ray diffraction, was associated with other components and could not be extracted, even with prolonged boiling. It was removed by hot, dilute alkali and was associated in the wall with another glucan fraction. Dry heating of A. niger walls altered their susceptibility to enzymic digestion of nigeran in situ. It is proposed that this treatment introduces interstices in the crystal surface that facilitate attack. 相似文献

The effect of cations Fe2+ and Fe3+ on the decomposition of apple pectin by the enzymic preparations of Asp. niger and Asp. awamori has been examined. Fe ions have delayed the process of enzymic decomposition of the pectin molecule. In the presence of Fe3+ far less amounts of monogalacturonic acid are formed. The presence of Fe ions makes the pectin molecule more stable to the effect of pectolytic enzymes. 相似文献

The effect of phosphate on the production of phosphatases by Aspergillus awamori var. kawachii was studied. In a high phosphate medium, little phosphatase was produced, and the phosphatase activity was predominately for beta-glycerophosphate. In a low phosphate medium, the production of phosphatase was increased and activity for glucose-6-phosphate predominated. Medium containing 1 mg of phosphorus per 100 ml was optimal, and the amount of phosphatase produced in this medium was about 200 times that produced in a high phosphate medium. By means of column chromatography on diethylaminoethyl cellulose, the phosphatase produced in the high phosphate medium was found to be eluted mainly at fraction e; the phosphatase of the low phosphate medium was separated into fractions a, b, c, and d. Thus, the phosphatase fractions produced in the low phosphate medium were different from those of the high phosphate medium. Since no specific effect on the production of esterases was observed when various phosphate esters were used as substrates, the enzymes of phosphate metabolism appear to be activated by nonspecific phosphate sources. 相似文献

The heterologous production of Arthromyces ramosus peroxidase (ARP) was analysed in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus awamori under control of the inducible endoxylanase promoter. Secretion of active ARP was achieved up to 800 mg l(-1) in shake flask cultures. Western blot analysis showed that an rARP product of the correct molecular weight was produced. In contrast to several other studies about heterologous production of heme containing peroxidases, our results suggest that in A. awamori no heme limitation exists during overproduction of ARP. 相似文献

Aspergillus niger is able to produce a quite high concentration of oxalic acid using sucrose as carbon and energy source. Operating at pH higher than 6 and an enriched N and P medium is necessary in order to conduct the fermentation towards oxalic acid production. A pH?shift technique, operating at acid pH?in the first two days and then setting pH?to 6, allowed the productivity to slightly increase in shaking flasks cultures up to 3.0?kg/m3?·?d, with a final oxalic acid concentration of 29?kg/m3. When operating at more controlled conditions, in a stirred tank, both productivity and oxalic acid concentration were improved (4.1?kg/m3?·?d and 33.8?kg/m3, respectively). However the main drawback of this fermentation is the low yield attained (about 0.3?kg oxalic acid/kg sucrose) because most of glucose, resulting from the hydrolysis of sucrose by the extracellular enzymes secreted at the beginning of the fermentation, is very quickly oxidised to gluconic acid, a process which is favoured at a pH?close to 6. Milk whey was proved to be a very good substrate as it allows oxalic acid to be produced with a similar productivity (2.5?kg/m3?·?d in shaking flasks) giving excellent yields of almost 0.6?kg oxalic acid/kg lactose. 相似文献

Oxalic acid is formed by Aspergillus niger at nearly neutral pH values. In this study the applicability of milk whey as a carbon source was investigated, both in shaking flask experiments and in a stirred tank reactor. The influence of pH on oxalic acid formation showed that the maximum production rate and higher concentration of the product are observed at pH 6. At pH 7 the same production rate was obtained although at a lower oxalic acid concentration. The process was shown to be inhibited by product from an oxalic acid concentration of about 10?kg/m3 and its behaviour was fitted by Luong's equation. In a 10-dm3 strirred tank ferment the stirrer speed was varied in a range from 100 to 600 rpm. At values between 200 and 400 rpm, maximum production rates of oxalic acid of 6.8?kg/m3·d and 6.5?kg/m3·d were reached, respec-tively. A final concentration of 41.4?kg oxalic acid/m3 was reached operating at 400 rpm. 相似文献

Polygalacturonase production by Aspergillus awamori on wheat in solid-state fermentation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The production of exo-polygalacturonase (exo-PG) and endo-PG by Aspergillus awamori grown on wheat in solid-state fermentation was studied. Endo- and exo-PG activities were detected after 24 h of inoculation. Glucose released from starch hydrolysis acted as a catabolite repressor for the exo-PG enzyme. In contrast, endo-PG production was not affected by glucose repression. When milled grains were used, the particle-size distribution and the chemical composition of the medium influenced the rate of micro-organism growth and therefore the trend followed by endo- and exo-PG production. However, these two parameters did not affect the maximum production of exo-PG and endo-PG. For one of the milled samples, three different moisture contents were used (50, 55, 60%). Moisture contents of 60% provide a higher yield of pectinases by A. awamori. 相似文献
