Regulation of pentose catabolic pathway genes of Aspergillus niger (2007)

Wosten, H.A.B., Levisson, M., VanKuyk, P.A., Ruijter, G.J.G., ...

The aim of this study was to obtain a better understanding of the pentose catabolism in Aspergillus niger and the regulatory systems that affect it. To this end, we have cloned and characterised the...

Glucose uptake and growth of glucose-limited chemostat cultures of Aspergillus niger and a disruptant lacking MstA, a high-affinity glucose transporter (2007)

Jorgensen, T.R., VanKuyk, P.A., Poulsen, B.R., Ruijter, G.J.G., Visser, J., Iversen, J.J.L.

Expression of agsA, one of five 1,3-alpha-D-glucan synthease-encoding genes in Aspergillus niger, is induced in response to cell wall stress. (2005)

Damveld, R.A., Vankuyk, P.A., Arentshorst, M., Klis, F.M., Ram, A.F.

1,3-alpha-D-Glucan is an important component of the cell wall of filamentous fungi. We have identified a family of five 1,3-alpha-D-glucan synthase-encoding genes in Aspergillus niger. The agsA gene...

The Aspergillus niger MADS-box transcription factor RlmA is required for cell wall reinforcement in response to cell wall stress. (2005)

Damveld, R.A., Arentshorst, M., Franken, A., Vankuyk, P.A., Klis, F.M., ...

In Aspergillus niger, the genes coding for glutamine:fructose-6-phosphate amidotransferase (gfaA) and alpha-1,3-glucan synthase (agsA) are induced in response to cell wall stress. In silico analysis...

Characterisation of CwpA, a putative glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored cell wall mannoprotein in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger. (2005)

Damveld, R.A., Arentshorst, M., Vankuyk, P.A., Klis, F.M., Ram, A.F.

The Aspergillus niger faeB gene encodes a second feruloyl esterase involved in pectin and xylan degradation and is specifically induced in the presence of aromatic compounds (2002)

VanKuyk, P.A., Kester, H.C.M., Visser, J.

The faeB gene encoding a second feruloyl esterase from Aspergillus niger has been cloned and characterized. It consists of an open reading frame of 1644 bp containing one intron. The gene encodes a...
