TL;DR: Specific expansion of genes for secretory hydrolytic enzymes, amino acid metabolism and amino acid/sugar uptake transporters supports the idea that A. oryzae is an ideal microorganism for fermentation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clustered pathway genes in aflatoxin biosynthesis.
Jiujiang Yu,Perng Kuang Chang,Kenneth C. Ehrlich,Jeffrey W. Cary,Deepak Bhatnagar,Thomas E. Cleveland,Gary A. Payne,John E. Linz,Charles P. Woloshuk,Joan W. Bennett +9 more
TL;DR: Aflatoxins, a group of polyketide-derived furanocoumarins, are the most toxic and carcinogenic compounds among the known mycotoxins and there are only four major aflatoxINS, B1, B2, G1, and G2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Whole genome comparison of Aspergillus flavus and A. oryzae
Gary A. Payne,William C. Nierman,Jennifer R. Wortman,B. L. Pritchard,Doug Brown,Ralph A. Dean,Deepak Bhatnagar,Thomas E. Cleveland,Masayuki Machida,Jiujiang Yu +9 more
TL;DR: The high degree of sequence similarity between the two fungi suggests that they may be ecotypes of the same species and that A. oryzae has resulted from the domestication of A. flavus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative mapping of aflatoxin pathway gene clusters in Aspergillus parasiticus and Aspergillus flavus.
Jiujiang Yu,Perng-Kuang Chang,Jeffrey W. Cary,Maureen S. Wright,Deepak Bhatnagar,Thomas E. Cleveland,Gary A. Payne,John E. Linz +7 more
TL;DR: The physical distances (in kilobase pairs) and the directions of transcription of these genes have been determined for both aflatoxigenic species and the order is related to the order in enzymatic steps required for aflatoxin biosynthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current Understanding on Aflatoxin Biosynthesis and Future Perspective in Reducing Aflatoxin Contamination
TL;DR: Most, if not all, of the aflatoxin pathway genes are cloned, indicating that the current status of research progress and future possibilities that may be used for solving a Flatoxin contamination are summarized.
