Title: Increases in gene-targeting frequencies due to disruption of kueA as a ku80 homolog in citric acid-producing Aspergillus niger. Author: Honda Y, Kobayashi K, Kirimura K. Journal: Biosci Biotechnol Biochem; 2011; 75(8):1594-6. PubMed ID: 21821927. Abstract: Low efficiencies of gene targeting hamper functional genomics in industrially important strains of Aspergillus niger. To generate strains showing high gene-targeting frequencies in A. niger WU-2223L producing citric acid, disruption of kueA encoding Ku80 homolog was performed. Disruption of kueA increased gene-targeting frequencies to 70%, and had no effect on citric acid production.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
