Aspergillus nidulans mutants affected in acetate metabolism isolated as lipid nonutilizers.

Experimental mycology - 1 Mar 1995

Kawasaki L, Farrés A, Aguirre J

Abstract excerpt

Interest in extracellular fungal lipases has increased mainly because of their industrial applications. However, no studies have been done on a genetically well characterized filamentous fungus like Aspergillus nidulans. Here we show that A. nidulans produces an extracellular lipase when grown in...
