Conditional expression of FumA in < em > Aspergillus niger < /em > enhances synthesis of L-malic acid
This study focuses on enhancing L-malic acid synthesis by modifying the tricarboxylic acid cycle within the mitochondria of Aspergillus niger. We emphasize the significant role of fumarase in converting fumaric acid into L-malic acid, enhancing our understanding of metabolic pathways in A. niger. The precise regulation of fumA is highlighted as a key factor in enhancing L-malic acid production. Furthermore, this research introduces a stringent conditional promoter (PmfsA), exclusively activated by CaCO3. The utilization of PmfsA for fumA expression resulted in heightened L-malic acid titers. The progress in metabolic engin...
