2008 journal article

The effect of temperature on Natural Antisense Transcript (NAT) expression in Aspergillus flavus

Current Genetics, 54(5), 241–269.

By: C. Smith*, D. Robertson n, B. Yates *, D. Nielsen n , D. Brown n, R. Dean n , G. Payne n

author keywords: Aspergillus flavus; Natural antisense transcripts (NATs); Temperature; Gene expression
MeSH headings : Aspergillus flavus / genetics; Aspergillus flavus / metabolism; Expressed Sequence Tags; Fungal Proteins / genetics; Fungal Proteins / metabolism; Gene Expression Regulation, Fungal; Genome, Fungal; RNA Precursors / metabolism; RNA, Antisense / metabolism; Temperature; Transcription, Genetic / genetics
TL;DR: RNA expression analysis showed that 32 NATs and 2,709 genes were differentially expressed between 37°C and 28°C, the conducive temperature for the biosynthesis of aflatoxin (AF) and many other secondary metabolites. (via Semantic Scholar)

2007 journal article

Silencing of the aflatoxin gene cluster in a diploid strain of Aspergillus flavus is suppressed by ectopic aflR expression

GENETICS, 176(4), 2077–2086.

By: C. Smith*, C. Woloshuk *, D. Robertson & G. Payne n

MeSH headings : Aflatoxins / genetics; Aspergillus flavus / genetics; Base Sequence; DNA Primers / genetics; DNA, Fungal / genetics; DNA-Binding Proteins / genetics; Diploidy; Fungal Proteins / genetics; Gene Dosage; Gene Expression; Gene Silencing; Genes, Fungal; Multigene Family; Mutation; Sequence Deletion; Transcription Factors / genetics; Transformation, Genetic
TL;DR: Gene expression analysis revealed a form of reversible silencing based on the position of aflR is likely preventing the aflatoxin genes from being expressed in 649 × wild-type diploids, specific to the a flatoxin gene cluster. (via Semantic Scholar)
