Research Abstract |
Aspergillus oryzae is known as an important microorganism utilized as koji mold in fermentation food industry. Person in charge previously found that the terminal sequences known as telomere is a novel repeat sequence with twelve nucleotides as a repeat unit. The telomeric sequence of Aspergillus oryzae, whose length was four times of the native telomere, was synthesized. It was linked to the linear vector. Then the transformants by the vector revealed to have chromosomes whose specific terminal region was successfully deleted.
