Project description:Pleurotus ostreatus, also known as the oyster mushroom, is an active lignin decomposer in the forests. The genomes of the monokaryotic strains PC15 and PC9 have been used to characterize the content and distribution of transposable elements. This study analyzes the impact of transposable element insertions on the global transcriptome of P. ostreatus. The transcriptome of PC15 and PC9 has been analyzed in exponential growth during submerged fermentation in malt-yeast extract-sucrose medium RNAseq of two P. ostreatus strains: PC15 and PC9

Project description:Photoresponse mechanism of oyster muchroom mycelia was studied using a custom microarray prepared on the basis of the genome information (Pleurotus ostreatus PC15 v2.0) in JGI Genome Portal. Blue light stimulation to the mycelia caused the up-regulation and down-regulation of genes expression. Particulary, the genes coding rate-controlling enzymes in glycolysis, pentose phosphate, and sikimic acid pathways were up-regulated to accumulate shikimic acid dramatically.
