Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE9275: A tri-species Aspergillus array (nidulans arrays) GSE9276: A tri-species Aspergillus array (niger arrays) GSE9277: A tri-species Aspergillus array (oryzae arrays) Keywords: SuperSeries Refer to individual Series
Project description:The full genome sequencing of the filamentous fungi Aspergillus nidulans, Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus oryzae has opened the possibilities for studying the cellular physiology of these fungi on a systemic level. As a tool to explore this, we are presenting an Affymetrix GeneChip developed for transcriptome analysis of any of the three above-mentioned aspergilli. Transcriptome analysis of triplicate batch cultivations of all three aspergilli on glucose-and xylose media has been performed, and used to validate the performance of the micro array. By doing gene comparisons of all three species, and cross-analysing this with the expression data, 23 genes, including the xylose transcriptional activator XlnR, have been identified to be a conserved response across the Aspergillus sp. Promoter analysis of the upregulated genes in all three species suggest the XlnR-binding site to be 5’-GGNTAAA-3’. We are thus presenting a validated tool for transcription analysis of three Aspergillus species and a methodology for comparative transcriptomics. Keywords: Physiological response

Project description:Multifunctional TFs are central in coordinating development and metabolism in filamentous fungi. In this study, we systematically dissect the regulatory functions of NsdD, a highly conserved GATA-type TF in Pezizomycotina, using network-based multi-omics approaches in two distantly related species, A. nidulans and A. flavus. Our analyses reveal that NsdD governs fungal development and metabolism through species-specific GRNs, directly targeting key upstream regulators and genes involved in core cellular processes. These regulatory distinctions underlie the morphological and metabolic differences observed between the two species. Notably, our cross-species comparison uncovers extensive GRN rewiring, demonstrating how evolutionary divergence can reshape transcriptional networks even under conserved regulatory control. The resulting GRN maps offer a valuable framework for understanding gene regulation in Aspergillus and provide a foundation for broader studies on the evolution of transcriptional networks and conserved regulatory factors in filamentous fungi.
