Acetate-enhanced polymerized triacylglycerol utilization by Mucor circinelloides

World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2005
We found that laboratory-prepared sunflower oil waste containing polymerized triacylglycerols (PTAGs) still within South African regulatory levels (i.e. 1, 5, 10 and 15% w/w) is effectively degraded by the fungus Mucor circinelloidesin the presence of acetate. Poor utilization was experienced in its absence.

Dimorphic Mechanism on cAMP Mediated Signal Pathway in Mucor circinelloides

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2020
Mucor circinelloides is a dimorphic fungus that is a non-pathogen strain belonging to zygomycetes. In this research, a part of hypothetical mechanism on yeast-like cell induction of M. circinelloides in CO2 atmosphere was reported from the viewpoint of gene expression.

Regulation of AreA on lipid biosynthesis under different nitrogen sources and C/N ratios in the model oleaginous fungus Mucor circinelloides.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids
Mucor circinelloides has been exploited as model filamentous fungi for studies of genetic manipulation of lipogenesis. It is widely recognized that lipid accumulation is increased when there is a lack of nitrogen source in oleaginous microorganism ...

The interplay of transcriptional regulator SREBP1 with AMPK promotes lipid biosynthesis in Mucor circinelloides WJ11.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids
SREBP1 is a transcription factor that influences lipogenesis by regulating key genes associated with lipid biosynthesis, while AMPK, modulates lipid metabolism by regulating acetyl-CoA carboxylase.

Transformation of Mucor circinelloides f. lusitanicus Protoplasts

2014
Since the first report of a Mucor circinelloides transformation system, many things have been improved by small changes that either simplify the original procedure, or use new technologies. Today, people working on this fungus have alternative methods of transformation that allow them choosing the most suitable one for their purposes.

Critical applications of Mucor circinelloides within a biorefinery context

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 2019
The establishment of an efficient and feasible biorefinery model depends on, among other factors, particularly the selection of the most appropriate microorganism. Mucor circinelloides is a dimorphic fungus species able to produce a wide variety of hydrolytic enzymes, lipids prone to biodiesel production, carotenoids, ethanol, and biomass with ...

The role of areA in lipid accumulation in high lipid-producing fungus Mucor circinelloides WJ11.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids
In the oleaginous fungus Mucor circinelloides, lipid accumulation is regulated by nitrogen metabolism, which is regulated by the areA gene, a member of the GATA zinc finger transporter family and a major regulator for nitrogen metabolism.

Activation of Mucor circinelloides lipase in organic medium

Journal of Molecular Catalysis B: Enzymatic, 2002
Abstract An intracellular Mucor circinelloides lipase either in the form of mycelium-bound enzyme, or in the homogeneous and soluble form, was subjected to activation experiments. It was found that some compounds, such as pyridine, diethanolamine (DEtA), triethanolamine (TEtA), and cetylpyridinium bromide, either increase or decrease the synthetic ...

A negative regulator of light-inducible carotenogenesis in Mucor circinelloides

Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2001
Mucor circinelloides responds to blue light by activating carotene biosynthesis. Wild-type strains grown in darkness contain minimal amounts of beta-carotene because of the low levels of transcription of the structural genes for carotenogenesis. When exposed to a light pulse, the level of transcription of these genes increases strongly, leading to the ...

Sporulation on blood serum increases the virulence of Mucor circinelloides

Microbial Pathogenesis, 2019
Mucor circinelloides is an opportunistic human pathogen that is used to study mucormycosis, a rare but lethal infection in susceptible immunosuppressed patients. However, the virulence characteristics of this pathogen have not been fully elucidated.
