The jlbA (j un-l ike b ZIP) gene of Aspergillus nidulans was isolated. The deduced amino
acid motif of the C-terminal region of jlbA encodes a putative DNA-binding site composed of …

We have isolated an α-glucosidase (AGL)-encoding gene (agdA) from Aspergillus oryzae by
heterologous hybridization using the corresponding Aspergillus niger gene as a probe …

The α-glucosidase gene (agdA) of Aspergillus nidulans has a single CGGN8CGG type
AmyR binding site in its promoter region. The binding site is functional in vivo as a cis …

The nucleotide sequence of a 1.5-kb fragment of the promoter region of the Aspergillus
oryzae agdA gene encoding α-glucosidase was determined. A comparison with the …

We used a plasmid carrying a sequence for autonomous maintenance in Aspergillus
(AMA1) and the E. coli uidA gene as a reporter gene to search the A. oryzae and A. niger …

Starch and maltooligosaccharides such as maltose and maltotriose induce the production of
amylolytic enzymes including α-amylase in Aspergillus oryzae. A transcriptional activator …

We have cloned a regulatory gene for amylase synthesis in Aspergillus oryzae. This gene,
amyR, encodes a 604-amino acid transcriptional activator with a Cys 6 zinc cluster, that …

Using synthetic oligonucleotide probes, we cloned genomic DNA sequences encoding an α-
amylase gene from Aspergillus niger var. awamori (A. awamori) on a 5.8 kb Eco RI fragment …

Regulation of alpha‐amylase gene expression in Aspergillus awamori was studied by
analyzing the enzyme activity levels, rate of protein synthesis, and alpha‐amylase‐specific …

Aspergillus oryzae RIB40 has three α-amylase genes (amyA, amyB, and amyC), and
secretes α-amylase abundantly. However, large amounts of endogenous secretory proteins …
