Project description:Trichoderma reesei is the main industrial producer of cellulases and hemicellulases used to depolymerize biomass in many biotechnical applications. Many production strains in use have been generated by classical mutagenesis. In this study we characterized genomic alterations in hyperproducing mutants of T. reesei by high-resolution comparative genomic hybridisation tiling array. We carried out aCGH analysis of four hyperproducing strains (QM9123, QM9414, NG14 and RutC-30) using QM6a genome as a reference. ArrayCGH analysis identified dozens of mutations in each strain analyzed.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in response to different light conditions of the T. reesei QM9414 parental strain and the deletion strains delta-phlp1, delta-gnb1 and delta gng1, cultivated on 1 % microcrystalline cellulose. The mutants analyzed in this study are further described in Tisch et al. 2011: Carbohydrate degradation is significantly regulated by light and the phosducin like protein PhLP1 in Trichoderma reesei (Hypocrea jecorina). We used two biological replicates of four T. reesei strains (QM9414, delta-phlp1, delta-gnb1 and delta-gng1), cultivated in constant light (LL, 1800 lux) or constant darkness (DD) on microcrystalline cellulose.
