摘要

Neurospora crassa colonizes burnt grasslands in the wild and metabolizes both cellulose and hemicellulose from plant cell walls. When switched from a favored carbon source such as sucrose to cellulose, N. crassa dramatically upregulates expression and secretion of a wide variety of genes encoding lignocellulolytic enzymes. However, the means by which N. crassa and other filamentous fungi sense the presence of cellulose in the environment remains unclear. Here, we show that an N. crassa mutant carrying deletions of two genes encoding extracellular p-glucosidase enzymes and one intracellular p-glucosidase lacks p-glucosidase activity, but efficiently induces cellulase gene expression in the presence of cel-lobiose, cellotriose, or cellotetraose as a sole carbon source. These data indicate that cellobiose, or a modified version of cellobiose, functions as an inducer of lignocellulolytic gene expression in, N. crassa. Furthermore, the inclusion of a deletion of the catabolite repressor gene, cre-1, in the triple p-glucosidase mutant resulted in a strain that produces higher concentrations of secreted active cel-lulases on cellobiose. Thus, the ability to induce cellulase gene expression using a common and soluble carbon source simplifies enzyme production and characterization, which could be applied to other cellulolytic filamentous fungi.
