Electrofusion of Mucor circinelloides protoplasts

Biotechnology Techniques, 1996
Electrical parameters were optimized for induction of the fusion of protoplasts formed from two auxotrophic (leu−, ade−) Mucor circinelloides strains. These proved to be a pulse voltage of 66 V, a pulse duration of 66 us and six pulses at intervals of 1.0 s.

Biolistic transformation of Mucor circinelloides

Mycological Research, 1997
Intact ungerminated spores or germinating swollen spores of Mucor circinelloides were biolistically transformed to leucine prototrophy with the autonomous replicating plasmids pLeu4 and pMCL1302. The former developmental stage was efficiently transformed with both plasmids.

Physiological properties and fatty acid composition in Mucor circinelloides f. circinelloides

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 1997
Sporangiospores of Mucor circinelloides f. circinelloides CBS108.16 could germinate and grow on a wide variety of carbon sources in synthetic liquid media. Growth was supported by aldoses which have the same configuration at carbon atom number two as glucose.

Canthaxanthin production with modified Mucor circinelloides strains

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2012
Canthaxanthin is a natural diketo derivative of β-carotene primarily used by the food and feed industries. Mucor circinelloides is a β-carotene-accumulating zygomycete fungus and one of the model organisms to study the carotenoid biosynthesis in fungi. In this study, the β-carotene ketolase gene (crtW) of the marine bacterium Paracoccus sp.

Primary cutaneous zygomycosis due to Mucor circinelloides

Australasian Journal of Dermatology, 2002
SUMMARYA 62‐year‐old woman with myelodysplastic syndrome presented with a 4‐week history of a large indurated ulcer with a black eschar on the forearm following trauma. On biopsy a diagnosis of zygomycosis was made as broad, sparsely septate, thin‐walled hyphae were seen in the deep dermis and subcutaneous fat.

Characterisation of the Mucor circinelloides regulated promoter gpd1P

Current Genetics, 2004
The promoter of the Mucor circinelloides gpd1 gene encoding glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (gpd1P) was recently cloned and used for the production of recombinant proteins, such as the Aspergillus niger glucose oxidase 1 (GOX). This represents the first example of the application of a strong and regulated promoter from this fungus for ...

Physiological stress tolerance responses of the dung decomposer fungus Mucor circinelloides.

Fungal Biology
The Mucor circinelloides complex, a group of dung-dwelling fungi, is essential for nutrient cycling and organic matter breakdown. Despite their ecological significance, variations in germination rates and stress tolerance among isolates are not well ...

Engineering Mucor circinelloides for enhanced lipid production through homologous overexpression of phosphofructokinase (PFK1 and PFK2) coupled with in-silico modeling analysis.

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules
Phosphofructokinase (PFK) enzyme is considered a key regulatory enzyme of glycolysis, which phosphorylates fructose 6P (F6P) to fructose-1,6-BP, a vital regulatory stage in the glycolytic process.

AMP deaminase: A crucial regulator in nitrogen stress and lipid metabolism in Mucor circinelloides.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2023
Lipid biosynthesis is a significant metabolic response to nitrogen starvation in oleaginous fungi. The oleaginous fungus Mucor circinelloides copes with nitrogen stress by degrading AMP through AMP deaminase (AMPD).

Role of AMP Deaminase in Mucor circinelloides: Implications for Nitrogen Utilization and Lipid Biosynthesis.

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2023
Lipid accumulation in oleaginous organisms is initiated by AMP deaminase (AMPD) after nitrogen depletion because it mediates the concentration of intracellular adenosine monophosphate (AMP).
