An integration plasmid pMW1-pepB for the pepB gene disruption in Aspergillus was constructed. The plasmid contained the pepB gene upstream (P) 1.4kb and downstream (T) 1.3kb homologous fragments with insertion of the expression unit of the hygromycin resistance gene (hph) between them. P and T DNA fragments were synthesized by PCR from Aspergillus niger chromosomal DNA. The integration plasmid was digested with the Hpa I restriction enzyme, the resultant 4.2kb linear fragment was introduced into the Aspergillus niger strain GICC2773 which expressing the glucoamylase/laccase fusion protein by PEG-mediated transformation. 62 Hygromycin resistance transformants were screened, and from them one strain named pepB29 was identified to be the pepB disruptant by PCR analysis. Data of functional assay of the pepB29 strain indicated that the disruption of the pepB gene secreted reduced acid proteolytic activity, and improved the heterologous protein laccase production.

Aeromonas is a ubiquitous aquatic bacteria, and it is a significant factor contributing to meat spoilage during processing and consumption. The abilities of Aeromonas salmonicida 29 and 57, which exhibit spoilage heterogeneity, to secrete protease, lipase, hemolysin, gelatinase, amylase, and lecithinase were confirmed by plate method. A total of 3948 proteins were identified by ITRAQ in extracellular secretions of A.

L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine (Ala-Gln) is a common parenteral nutritional supplement. In our previous study, the recombinant whole-cell catalyst Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) overexpressing α-amino acid ester acyltransferase (BPA) to produce Ala-Gln has high activity and has been applied to large-scale production experiments. However, the degradation of Ala-Gln is detected under prolonged incubation, and endogenous broad-spectrum dipeptidase may be the primary cause.

Background: The phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein (PEBP) gene family is involved in regulating many plant traits. Genome-wide identification of PEPB members and knowledge of their responses to heat stress may assist genetic improvement of potato (Solanum tuberosum).
Methods And Results: We identified PEBP gene family members from both the recently-updated, long-reads-based reference genome (DM v6.
