M. Kato et al., A simple and rapid method for the preparation of a cell-free extract with CCAAT-binding activity from filamentous fungi, BIOS BIOT B, 64(2), 2000, pp. 455-457
A simple and rapid method for the preparation of a cell-free extract with t
he CCAAT-binding activity was established with Aspergillus nidulans as a mo
del fungus. Proteins were extracted with 6 M guanidine hydrochloride direct
ly from mycelia and renatured by dialysis. This method was found applicable
to other filamentous fungi such as Aspergillus oryzae and Trichoderma viri
de.
