Expression of Heterologous Promoters in Aspersillus oryzae
초록
영어
The expression of Aspergillus nidulans glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (gpdA) and trpC promoters in A. oryzae were compared using E. coli lacZ gents fusions. The specific activities of the expressed E. coli B-galactosidase in A. oryzae transformants containing the A. nidulans gpdA promoter were around 2,000 units per ug of protein. The specific activities of transformants containing the A. nidulans trpC promoter were very low, ranging from 10.5 to 52.3 units per ug of protein. These results showed that the expression of the A. nidulans gpdA promoter in A. oryzae was approximately 70 times greater than the A. nidulans trpC promoter. In western blot analysis, immunoreactive bands of a imlilar molecular weight as the E. coli B-galactosidase were observed in A. oryzae carrying the gpdA-lacZ fusion and to a lesser intensity in those carrying the tvpC-lacZ fusion. Southern analysis showed that the higher expression of the gpdA-lacZ fusion as compared to the trpC-lacZ fusion was not due a greater number of integrated plasmids.

Aspergillus oryzae에서 A. nidulans의 glyceral d dehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (gpdA)와 trpC, prmoter의 발현 능력 을 E. coli lacZ gene fusion을 이용하여 비교.분석하였다. A. oryzae 내에서 발현된 E. coli Bgalactosidase의 specific activIty를 조사하여 본 결과, gpdA promoter를 가지는 transformant들 에서는 2,000unit/ug of protem 정도의 activity를 보이는 반면, trpC, promater를 가지고 있는 transformant들에서는 10.5~52.3unit/ug of protein 정도의 activity를 보였다. 이 결과로부터 A. oryzae 내에서 A. nidulans의 gpdA promoter가 trpC, promoter에 비해 70 배 정도 더 강한 발현 능력을 보이고 있음을 알 수 있다. Western blot 분석에서도 gpdA promoter를 가지고 있는 transf ormant에서 더 많은 E. coli B-galactosidase가 발현된 것 을 보여 주고 있다. 또한 southern blot 분석에서는 이러한 강한 발현이 transform된 plasmid의 copy number와 상관 없음을 보여주고 있다
