L. Ventura et al., MOLECULAR-CLONING AND TRANSCRIPTIONAL ANALYSIS OF THE ASPERGILLUS-TERREUS GLA1 GENE ENCODING A GLUCOAMYLASE, Applied and environmental microbiology, 61(1), 1995, pp. 399-402
The Aspergillus terreus gla1 gene, coding for a glucoamylase, has been
cloned by heterologous hybridization. The gene is interrrupted by fou
r introns and encodes a protein with an N-terminal catalytic domain an
d a C-terminal starch-binding domain. The expression of the gene is in
duced by starch and maltose and repressed by glucose.
