Project description:The transcriptome of Phanerochaete chrysosporium control mycelium was compared to the transcriptome of mycelium grown on oak acetonic extractives containing medium. The array probes were designed from gene models taken from the Joint Genome Institute (JGI, Department of Energy) Phanerochaete chrysosporium genome sequence version 1. The aim of this study was to determine gene expression changes in Phanerochaete chrysosporium grown on oak extract with a special focus on detoxification systems.
Project description:Transcript profiles of Phanerochaete chrysosporium grown on different substrates were analyszed. Array design was based on the DoE's Joint Genome Institute's gene models for P. chrysosporium version s. The research goal is to identify genes essential for lignocellulose depolymerization.
