improvement of manganese peroxidase production by the hyper lignin-degrading fungus phanerochaete sordida yk-624 by recombinant expression of the 5-aminolevulinic acid synthase gene.the manganese peroxidase (mnp) gene (mnp4) promoter of phanerochaete sordida yk-624 was used to drive expression of 5-aminolevulinic acid synthase (als), which is a key heme biosynthesis enzyme. the expression plasmid pmnp4pro-als was transformed into p. sordida yk-624 uracil auxotrophic mutant uv-64, and 14 recombinant als expressing-transformants were generated. average cumulative mnp activities in the transformants were 1.18-fold higher than that of control transformants. in particular, trans ...201323884595
effects of homologous expression of 1,4-benzoquinone reductase and homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase genes on wood decay in hyper-lignin-degrading fungus phanerochaete sordida yk-624.we investigated the function of 1,4-benzoquinone reductase (bqr)- and homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase (hgd)-like genes in wood degradation by phanerochaete sordida yk-624, which exhibits high ligninolytic activity and selectivity. we determined homologous expression in the genomic and cdna sequences of bqr- and hgd-like genes in p. sordida yk-624 (psbqr and pshgd). both genes shared high homology (≥90 % amino acid sequence similarity) with the corresponding genes in phanerochaete chrysosporium. th ...201627363425
improvement of ethanol production by recombinant expression of pyruvate decarboxylase in the white-rot fungus phanerochaete sordida yk-624.to improve ethanol production by phanerochaete sordida yk-624, the pyruvate decarboxylase (pdc) gene was cloned from and reintroduced into this hyper lignin-degrading fungus; the gene encodes a key enzyme in alcoholic fermentation. we screened 16 transformant p. sordida yk-624 strains that each expressed a second, recombinant pdc gene (pdc) and then identified the transformant strain (designated gp7) with the highest ethanol production. direct ethanol production from hardwood was 1.41 higher wit ...201626766784
carboxylated or aminated polyaniline-multiwalled carbon nanotubes nanohybrids for immobilization of cellobiose dehydrogenase on gold electrodes.polymer-multiwalled carbon nanotube (mwcnt) nanohybrids, which differ in surface charge have been synthesized to study the bioelectrocatalysis of adsorbed cellobiose dehydrogenase (cdh) from phanerochaete sordida on gold electrodes. to obtain negatively charged nanohybrids, poly(3-amino-4-methoxybenzoic acid-co-aniline) (p(amb-a)) was covalently linked to the surface of mwcnts while modification with p-phenylenediamine (pda) converted the cooh-groups to positively charged amino groups. fourier t ...201425587429
