Journal ArticleDOI
Purification and characterization of a biodegradable plastic-degrading enzyme from Aspergillus oryzae.
Hiroshi Maeda,Youhei Yamagata,Keietsu Abe,Fumihiko Hasegawa,Masayuki Machida,Ryoji Ishioka,Katsuya Gomi,Tasuku Nakajima +7 more
TL;DR: Determination of the affinities for different chemicals indicated that the most preferred substrate for the enzyme would consist of butyric acid and n-hexanol, and the environment of the catalytic pocket, which is divided into carboxylic acid and alcohol recognition sites, was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Aspergillus oryzae genomics on industrial production of metabolites.
TL;DR: Genes that have been newly discovered through genome research can be used for the production of novel valuable enzymes and chemicals, and are important for designing new industrial processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcriptional analysis of genes for energy catabolism and hydrolytic enzymes in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus oryzae using cDNA microarrays and expressed sequence tags.
Hiroshi Maeda,Motoaki Sano,Yutaka Maruyama,Takeki Tanno,Takeshi Akao,Yoshiteru Totsuka,Misako Endo,Rumi Sakurada,Youhei Yamagata,Masayuki Machida,Osamu Akita,Fumihiko Hasegawa,Keietsu Abe,Katsuya Gomi,Tasuku Nakajima,Yasutaka Iguchi +15 more
TL;DR: The wheat-bran culture gave the richest gene expression profile of hydrolytic enzymes and the lowest expression levels of catabolic genes (EMP, TCA) among the three media tested, suggesting that A. oryzae uses both EMP and TCA for glucose metabolism under AC conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The fungal hydrophobin RolA recruits polyesterase and laterally moves on hydrophobic surfaces.
Toru Takahashi,Hiroshi Maeda,Hiroshi Maeda,Sachiyo Yoneda,Shinsaku Ohtaki,Yohei Yamagata,Fumihiko Hasegawa,Katsuya Gomi,Tasuku Nakajima,Keietsu Abe +9 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that RolA adsorbed to the hydrophobic surface of PBSA recruits CutL 1, resulting in condensation of CutL1 on the PBSA surface and consequent stimulation ofPBSA hydrolysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel hydrophobic surface binding protein, HsbA, produced by Aspergillus oryzae.
Shinsaku Ohtaki,Hiroshi Maeda,Hiroshi Maeda,Toru Takahashi,Youhei Yamagata,Fumihiko Hasegawa,Katsuya Gomi,Tasuku Nakajima,Keietsu Abe +8 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that when HsbA is adsorbed onto the PBSA surface, it recruits CutL 1, and that when CutL1 is accumulated on the PB SA surface,It stimulates PBSA degradation via the CutL2 polyesterase.
