Strain Improvement by Overexpression of the laeA Gene in Monascus pilosus for the Production of Monascus-Fermented Rice

open access: yesJournal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2013
Monascus species have been used to produce fermented rice called Monascus-fermented rice (MFR). To improve a Monascus strain via activation of secondary metabolite (SM) gene clusters for use in the production of MFR, we overexpressed an ortholog of the laeA gene, which encodes a global positive regulator of secondary metabolism under the control of the
