Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Using Aspergillus oryzae expression system, we have succeeded elucidation of enzymatic mechanism of several important natural products such as C20/C25-terpenes, ribosomal peptide and mushroom antibiotics. Especially, we proved the expression system is reliable for production of known and novel natural products (terpenoids) using uncharacterized biosynthetic gene clusters.
