RNA-seq of the thermophilic biomass-degrading fungus Malbranchea cinnamomea FCH 10.5 when grown on glucose, wheat bran and beechwood xylan

ABSTRACT: The thermophilic fungus Malbranchea cinnamomea belongs to the order of Onygenales and is a promising source of thermostable, industrially relevant biocatalysts, as it can grow at temperatures of more than 50°C and is able to utilise many different types of plant biomass. Enzymes from M. cinnamomea that have been characterised so far include an α-amylase, an α-glucosidase, xylanases and an alkaline β-1,3-1,4-glucanase (lichenase), all of which have been reported to have temperature optima between 50°C and 80°C. With this study, we complement the knowledge of the enzymatic repertoire of M. cinnamomea with a transcriptomic analysis of strain FCH 10.5 to provide a more comprehensive view of its lignocellulolytic enzyme system.
