摘要
The molecular basis for increasing of the glucoamylase (GLA) production of an Aspergillus niger mutant T21 was investigated . Northern blot analysis showed that the amount of glaA specific mRNA of A . niger T21 was about 20 times higher than that of its start strain A . niger AS 3.795. The two glaA promoter fusions (PglaA)-uidAs were respectively introduced into A . niger. Analysis of GUS activity of the transformants revealed that the PglaA activity of the strain T21 is about 3 times stronger than that of the strain AS 3.795. It is considered to be one of the reasons for the increase of glaA transcriptional level in the strain T21. However, comparing with the 20 times increase in the amount of glaA mRNA the alteration of trans regulation should be the most important reason for that. The results of deletion analysis of 5′-cis region of A . niger T21 glaA gene indicated that the region from - 408 to - 513 bp upstream of ATG is responsible for the high level expression of glaA.
