(Submitter supplied) Filamentous fungi are confronted with changes and limitations of their carbon source during growth in their natural habitats and during industrial applications. To survive life-threatening starvation conditions, carbon from extra- and intracellular resources becomes mobilized to fuel fungal self-propagation. Key to understand the underlying cellular processes is the system-wide analysis of fungal starvation responses in a temporal and spatial resolution. more...

(Submitter supplied) In this study, we compared the gene expression pattern of A. niger grown in liquid sugar beet pulp (SBP) at different time points, a by-product of the sugar industry that consists mainly of cellulose, xyloglucan, and pectin. Finally, we compared A. niger genetic response to liquid SBP to that of the same fungus when grown on solid SBP plates and polygalacturonic acid (PGA).

(Submitter supplied) This work presents an exploration of submerged differentiation of the ubiquitous saprophyte and industrially important fungus, Aspergillus niger, in response to a limited availability of a sole carbon and energy source, maltose. In aspergilli and other mold fungi, asexual reproduction through formation of elaborate conidiogenic structures normally requires an aerial interface. This requirement is bypassed in submerged culture in response to severe nutrient limitation. more...

(Submitter supplied) We have studied the physiological response of the fungus Aspergillus niger when exposed to wheat straw as a model lignocellulosic substrate. Using RNA-sequencing we showed that, 24 hours after exposure to straw, gene expression of known plant cell wall degrading enzymes represents a huge investment for the cells (about 20 % of the total mRNA). Our results also uncovered new esterases and surface interacting proteins that might form part of the fungal degradative arsenal. more...

(Submitter supplied) Mycelia of filamentous fungi explore new substrates by means of hyphae that extend from the periphery of the colony. Previously, it has been shown by immuno-labelling, reporter studies and in situ hybridization that these exploring hyphae are heterogenic with respect to protein secretion and transcription. We performed single hyphal tip RNA profiling using microarrays to assess the differences in RNA accumulation in neighboring exploring hyphae

(Submitter supplied) Fungi are an important source of enzymes for saccharification of plant polysaccharides and production of biofuels. Understanding of the regulation and induction of expression of genes encoding these enzymes is still incomplete. To explore the induction mechanism, we analysed the response of the industrially important fungus Aspergillus niger to wheat straw, with a focus on events occurring shortly after exposure to the substrate. more...

(Submitter supplied) Ectomycorrhizal fungi are dependent on host trees for carbon supply. In return ectomycorrhizal fungi supply trees with water and nutrients. It is known that when ectomycorrhizal fungi have exploited a nutrient rich patch in soil, the carbon allocation to mycelia in that patch is reduced, with the consequence of mycelia dying, but less is known of the dynamics of this senescence. We cultivated the ectomycorrhizal fungus Paxillus involutus in an axenic system. more...

(Submitter supplied) The industrially important fungus Aspergillus niger feeds naturally on decomposing plant material, for which it is equipped with a range of enzyme systems. A significant proportion of plant material are lipids that might be available either as for energy storage or as membrane building blocks. With 63 potential lipase-encoding genes in its genome, A. niger has the tools to degrade these extracellular lipids. more...

(Submitter supplied) Knowledge of the biological and technical variation for fermentor-grown Aspergillus niger cultures is needed to design DNA microarray experiments properly. We cultured A. niger in batch-operated fermentor vessels and induced with D-xylose. Transcript profiles were followed in detail by qPCR for 8 genes. A variance components analysis was performed on these data to determine the origin and magnitude of variation within each process step for this experiment. more...

(Submitter supplied) Background: HacA/Xbp1 is a conserved bZIP transcription factor in eukaryotic cells which regulates gene expression in response to various forms of secretion stress and as part of secretory cell differentiation. In the present study, we replaced the endogenous hacA gene of an Aspergillus niger strain with a gene encoding a constitutively active form of the HacA transcription factor (HacACA). The impact of constitutive HacA activity during exponential growth was explored in bioreactor controlled cultures using transcriptomic analysis to identify affected genes and processes. more...

(Submitter supplied) Galactose catabolism in Aspergillus nidulans is regulated by at least two regulators, GalR and GalX. In Aspergillus niger only GalX is present, and its role in D-galactose catabolism in this fungus was investigated. Phenotypic and gene expression analysis of a wild type and a galX disruptant revealed that GalX does not substitute for the absence of GalR in A. niger, it regulates the D-galactose oxido-reductive pathway, but not the Leloir pathway. more...

(Submitter supplied) Asexual development is fundamental to the ecology and lifestyle of filamentous fungi and can facilitate both plant and human infection. In the filamentous fungal genus Aspergillus, the production of asexual spores is primarily governed by the BrlA-AbaA-WetA central regulatory cascade. The final step in this cascade, which is controlled by the WetA protein, not only governs cellular development (i.e., the morphological differentiation of spores) but also ensures its coupling with chemical development (i.e., the coordinated production and deposition of diverse secondary metabolites, such as aflatoxins, into spores). more...

(Submitter supplied) Glutathione (GSH) is an abundant and widely distributed antioxidant in fungi. Hence, understanding cellular GSH metabolism is of vital importance to deciphering redox regulation in these microorganisms. In this study, we generated dugB (AN1879), dugC (AN1092), and dugB dugC double deletion mutants which display disruption of the GSH degradation pathway in Aspergillus nidulans. Deletion of dugB, dugC or both resulted in a moderate increase in GSH content under growing conditions and substantially slowed down the depletion of GSH pools under carbon starvation. more...
