Popis: | AoXlnR was isolated as a transcriptional activator of the major xylanase gene, xynF1, in Aspergillus oryzae. To investigate the spectrum of genes under the control of AoXlnR, expression of the xylanolytic and cellulolytic genes in an A. oryzae wild type strain, an AoxlnR disruptant and an AoXlnR overexpressed strain was analyzed by Northern blotting. AoXlnR mediated expression of at least four xylanolytic genes and four cellulolytic genes when induced by xylan and D-xylose. Moreover, AoXlnR was newly found to mediate the cellulose-inductive expression of the xylanolytic genes as well as the cellulolytic genes. |
