Rat cytochrome P450-mediated transformation of dichlorodibenzo-Pdioxins by recombinant white-rot basidiomycete Coriolus hirsutus
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2006) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaRat cytochrome P450, CYP1A1, has been reported to play an important role in the metabolism of mono-trichlorodibenzo-p-dioxins (M-TriCDDs). To breed lignin (and M-TetraCDDs)-degrading basidiomycete Coriolus hirsutus strains ... -
Sequence analysis and expression of a RecQ gene homologue from Lentinula edodes
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2006) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaWe cloned and sequenced a recQ gene homologue from Lentinula edodes. This gene, named Le.recQ, was found to have a coding capacity of 945 amino acids (aa). The deduced Le.RECQ protein was clearly smaller than other fungal ... -
Heterologous expression of mating type genes in basidiomycetes
