Outline of Final Research Achievements

Secondary metabolism genes often have diverse expression conditions and are generally difficult to be expressed. Thus, we have constructed reporters to measure transcription strength of genes in Aspergillus oryzae using EGFP and secretory luciferase, and have found only the latter worked in terms of quantitative measurement. By using the reporter above, we analyzed transcription induction of various secondary metabolism genes including those predicted by bioinformatics based on transcriptome analyses. It was found that most of the genes were induced by solid-state cultivation, high osmotic pressure and long cultivation time. So, we have constructed deletants of some member genes in the HogA signaling cascade. Together with the reporter we have developed, important information in terms of induction of secondary metabolism genes especially by osmotic stress was obtained.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

二次代謝系遺伝子は、抗生物質や免疫抑制剤を初めとして、社会に有益な様々な生理活性物質の生合成に関わる。ゲノム解析によって、糸状菌ゲノムより多数の二次代謝系遺伝子が発見されたが、その多くは発現させることが困難で、解析の大きな障害になっている。本研究で開発した分泌型ルシフェラーゼを用いたレポーターにより、二次代謝系遺伝子を制御する重要な要素が見いだされた。各要素はこれまでにも解明されていたが、組合せによって誘導を増強できること、約80%の遺伝子に友好であること、従来よりも簡便な培養で実現できることなどが明らかとなった。これにより、二次代謝系遺伝子をより有効に利用するための基盤が築かれた。
