Figure 5From: Functional characterization of a Penicillium chrysogenum mutanase gene induced upon co-cultivation with Bacillus subtilis Mutanase production by P. chrysogenum during co-cultivation with B. subtilis . A- fungal biomass (○) and mutanase activity (●) after 0 h, 5 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h of co-cultivation with B. subtilis in aerobic, glucose-limited chemostat cultures. B- Expression of the six putative mutanase genes found in the genome of P. chrysogenum during co-cultivation. (●) Pc18g06380, (○) Pc12g13330, (×) Pc13g0113, (∆) Pc15g0400 (▲) Pc12g07500, (□) Pc13g12810. Data are presented as mean and standard deviation of three independent replicates.Back to article page
