Effect of Different Carbons on Lipid Production and SNF1 Transcription in Mucor Circinelloides.

ABSTRACT: Sucrose non-fermenting 1 (SNF1) protein kinase plays an important role in the utilization of selective carbon sources and regulation of lipid metabolism. In order to further explore the function of SNF1 in regulating lipid accumulation by responding nutritional signals from non-glucose carbon sources, in the present study, the lipid production and SNF1 transcriptional levels of Mucor circinelloides were analyzed and compared on different carbon sources. The results indicated that M. circinelloides could effectively utilize some secondary metabolic carbon sources of monosaccharides and disaccharides for growth and lipids production, such as fructose, maltose and galactose. Snf-β subunit was associated with the regulation of lipid metabolism in response to nutritional signals f
