Project description:Penicillium citrinum X9-4, which was isolated from infected grapes by our laboratory, produced the highest amount of OTA at pH 5 in culture media, and toxin-production was restrained under acidic environment (pH 3). It revealed the possible mechanism of OTA biosynthesis and metabolic regulation in P. citrinum by transcriptomics, and investigated the reason of OTA biosynthesis was restrained in P. citrinum when cultured under acidic environment.
Project description:In this study, a relative quantitative comparison of proteins that are differentially expressed at two time points during limonene biotransformation (0 and 12 h) is performed using iTRAQ combined with LC–MS/MS. It provides a basis for further study of the molecular mechanism of limonene biotransformation using Penicillium digitatum DSM 62840.
Project description:RNA-seq was used to compare differential gene expressions for Penicillium oxalicum wild type strain (M12) and sporognesis related genes knock out strains.The goals of this study are to construct the sporogenesis regulation pathway of Penicillium oxalicum. Examination of differential gene expressions by digital gene expression tag profiling in Penicillium oxalicum wild type strain and nine mutant strains (flbA knoutout strain, flbB knoutout strain, flbC knoutout strain, flbD knoutout strain, flbE knoutout strain,wetA knoutout strain, abaA knoutout strain,stuA knoutout strain, swi6 knoutout strain)
