| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to increase the degradability of plant cell wall, we tried to cleave the linkages between lignin and carbohydrate in lignocarbohydrate complex (LCC) in planta. CcEST1 is an esterase of a white-rot-fungus, Coprinopsis cinerea. CcEST1 has both feruloyl-esterase activities. Thus, this enzyme can cleave bonds between the lignin and polysaccharide. And CcAbf62A is also an arabinofranosidase from C. cinerea. It can cleave the arabinofranosyl bonds in LCC. Because CcEST1 was a gene from a basidiomycete, the corresponding nucleotide sequence to a plant extracellular secretion signal was fused at the 5’-upstream site in frame to secrete effectively to the plant extracellular space. We analyzed the modified CcEST1 and CcAbf62A introduced transgenic rice plants. Transgenic rice plants produced CcEST1 contained slightly increased lignin contents, but lignin contents of ransgenic rice plants produced CcEST1 were not changed. In vitro digestibility of transgenic plants rised.
