Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to answer the question "Why mushrooms cannot ferment ethanol?", i)pyruvate decarboxylase, ii) alcohol dehydrogenase, and iii) aldehyde dehydrogenase genes which are key enzymes of alcohol production, were identified and their expression were analyzed.As the result, the expression of pyruvate decarboxylase gene is very weak, and it was strongly suggested that the role of alcohol dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase has evolved from ethanol metabolism to decomposition of aromatic compounds.
Therefore, expression of alcohol dehydrogenase gene and pyruvate decarboxylase gene isolated from baker’s yeast under the control of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase promoter from Nameko, are to be investigated to breed ethanol fermentable mushroom
