Cinnamic Acid and Sorbic acid Conversion Are Mediated by the Same Transcriptional Regulator in Aspergillus niger

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019
Cinnamic acid is an aromatic compound commonly found in plants and functions as a central intermediate in lignin synthesis. Filamentous fungi are able to degrade cinnamic acid through multiple metabolic pathways.

Recommendations To Prevent Taxonomic Misidentification of Genome-Sequenced Fungal Strains

Microbiology Resource Announcements, 2021
C orrect identi fi cation of a (genome-sequenced) strain is an essential step in evolutionary and comparative genomic studies. It came to our attention that the number of publicly available misidenti fi ed genome-sequenced strains is increasing.
