| Research Abstract |
A number of biosynthetic genes for fungal secondary metabolites were successfully reconstructed in yeast cells, and I successfully obtained natural products biosynthesized by them through heterologous production in yeast. I also developed molecular genetics systems for biosynthetic studies in some filamentous fungi. And I obtained a number of natural products, some of which are new/novel, through disruptions of genes involved in regulation of biosynthetic genes. I then found that several secondary metabolites are involved in regulation of transcription and sexual development (formation of sexual spores) in Chaetomium globosum.
