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)

Project description:The goals of this study are to compare differential gene expressions for Penicillium oxalicum wild type strain (WT), laeA knockout strain (M-NM-^TlaeA), creA knockout strain (M-NM-^TcreA), and double genes knockout strain (M-NM-^TlaeAM-NM-^TcreA). The deletion of laeA downregulated genes involved in oxidation- reduction process, alkaloid metabolic process, and transmembrane transport. We find the expression levels of seven secondary metabolism gene clusters (totally 28 clusters) were silenced inM-NM-^TlaeA. The deletion of creA upregulated genes involved in hydrolase activity, acting on glycosyl bonds. Many genes involved in conidiation were drastically regulated inM-NM-^TlaeAM-NM-^TcreA. This study provides the information that combined laeA and creA function are required in conidiation and hydrolase activity of P. oxalicum. Examination of differential gene expressions by digital gene expression tag profiling in Penicillium oxalicum wild type strain and three mutant strains (laeA knockout strain, creA knockout strain and double genes knockout strain). qRTM-bM-^@M-^SPCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays.
