To elucidate the mechanism of cellulase signal transduction in filamentous fungi including the components of the cellulase induction pathway.
Neurospora crassa ncw-1 encodes a non-anchored cell wall protein. The absence of ncw-1 increased cellulase gene expression and this is not due to relieving carbon catabolite repression mediated by the cre-1 pathway. A mutant lacking genes encoding both three major β-glucosidase enzymes and NCW-1 (Δ3βGΔncw-1) was constructed. Transcriptome analysis of the quadruple mutant demonstrated enhanced expression of cellodextrin transporters after ncw-1 deletion, indicating that ncw-1 affects cellulase expression and production by inhibiting the uptake of the cellodextrin.
NCW-1 is a novel component that plays a critical role in the cellulase induction signaling pathway.
阐明丝状真菌中纤维素酶信号转导的机制,包括纤维素酶诱导途径的组成成分。
粗糙脉孢菌的ncw-1编码一种非锚定细胞壁蛋白。ncw-1缺失会增加纤维素酶基因的表达,这并非是由于解除了由cre-1途径介导的碳代谢物阻遏作用。构建了一个同时缺失编码三种主要β-葡萄糖苷酶和NCW-1的基因的突变体(Δ3βGΔncw-1)。对该四重突变体的转录组分析表明,ncw-1缺失后纤维糊精转运蛋白的表达增强,这表明ncw-1通过抑制纤维糊精的摄取来影响纤维素酶的表达和产生。
NCW-1是纤维素酶诱导信号通路中发挥关键作用的一种新成分。
