To determine the impact of traditional koji molds on chemical characteristics of soft-type natural cheese, novel surface mold-ripened cheeses with Aspergillus oryzae and Aspergillus sojae were studied...
Microfungal isolates were routinely identified depending on both macro and micro morphological characteristics, sometimes, some fungal isolates appeared to be similar and such cases caused severe conf...
The interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) is a crucial molecule that counteracts the effects of interleukin-1 (IL-1) by binding to its receptor. A high concentration of IL-1Ra is required for com...
We purified A. oryzae-expressed IL-1Ra (Asp. IL-1Ra) using ion exchange and size exclusion chromatography (53 mg/L). Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis revea...
This study reports the production of a functional Asp. IL-1Ra with advantageous stability, without extensive downstream processing. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a recombinant function...
Konjac glucomannan (KGM) is a principal component of the gelatinous food Konjac. Konjac production through alkali treatment releases an undesirable amine-odor. Two acetylesterases (AME1 and AME2) acti...
γ-Glutamyl transpeptidase is one of the key enzymes involved in glutamate production during high-salt fermentation of soy sauce and miso by koji mold, Aspergillus oryzae. However, the activity of γ-gl...
Aspergillus oryzae 3.042 and Aspergillus sojae 3.495 are crucial starters for fermented soybean foods since their abundant secreted enzymes. This study aimed to compare the differences in protein secr...
We previously reported autophagy-mediated degradation of nuclei, nucleophagy, in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus oryzae. In this study, we examined whether nuclei are degraded as a whole. We genera...
Orsellinic acid (2,4-dihydroxy-6-methylbenzoic acid, OA) and its structural analog o-Orsellinaldehyde, have become widely used intermediates in clinical drugs synthesis. Although the research on the b...
With the help of genome mining, we found a polyketide synthase (PKS, HerA) in the genome of the Hericium erinaceus, which shares 60% amino acid sequence homology with ArmB from Armillaria mellea, an i...
Herein, we successfully expressed the genes of basidiomycetes using A. oryzae heterologous host. As a fungus of ascomycetes, which not only correctly splices genes of basidiomycetes containing multipl...
Aspergillus oryzae HML366 is a newly screened cellulase-producing strain. The endoglucanase HML ED1 from A. oryzae HML366 was quickly purified by a two-step method that combines ammonium sulfate preci...
Xylanases (EC 3.2.1.8) hydrolyze the hemicellulose of plant cell walls. Xylanases are used in the food and paper industries and for bioconversion of lignocellulose to biofuel. In this work, the produc...
