Cap analysis gene expression (CAGE) of Aspergillus luchuensis mut. kawachii control and sirtuin D disruptant strains


ABSTRACT: Sirtuin is considered to play a significant role in the growth phase-dependent gene expression. In this study, we characterized sirtuin in the white koji fungus, Aspergillus kawachii, to examine their role on regulation of amylolytic enzymes and citric acid productions during the solid-state culture (koji). Characterization of rice-koji made using five putative sirtuin gene disruptants indicated that they are involved in amylolytic activity and acidity of rice koji; especially the sirD disruptant showed lower levels of α-amylase activity and citric acid production per mycelial weight in the koji compared the control strain. In addition, the sirD disruptant also showed a change in mycelial pigmentation, higher sensitivity to cell wall biogenesis inhibitor such as calcofluor white and Congo red, and reduced conidia formation, indicating that SirD is required for secondary metabolism, cell wall integrity, and conidial development. The cap analysis gene expression (CAGE) indicated that the transcriptional changes related to the characteristic phenotype of the sirD disruptant (e.g., a reduced transcript level of acid-stable α-amylase gene and a citric acid exporter) in rice koji. These results indicated that SirD has a significant role on the global transcriptional regulation including productions of α-amylase and citric acid in A. kawachii during the solid-state fermentation process.
