Journal Article
Gressler, M., Meyer, F., Heine, D., Hortschansky, P., Hertweck, C., & Brock, M. (2015). Phytotoxin production in Aspergillus terreus is regulated by independent environmental signals. eLife, 4, Article e07861. https://doi.org/10.7554/eLife.07861.001

Secondary metabolites have a great potential as pharmaceuticals, but there are only a few examples where regulation of gene cluster expression has been correlated with ecological and physiological relevance for the producer. Here, signals, mediators,... Read More about Phytotoxin production in Aspergillus terreus is regulated by independent environmental signals.

A new high-performance heterologous fungal expression system based on regulatory elements from the Aspergillus terreus terrein gene cluster (2015)
Journal Article
Gressler, M., Hortschansky, P., Geib, E., & Brock, M. (2015). A new high-performance heterologous fungal expression system based on regulatory elements from the Aspergillus terreus terrein gene cluster. Frontiers in Microbiology, 6, https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2015.00184

Recently, the Aspergillus terreus terrein gene cluster was identified and selected for development of a new heterologous expression system. The cluster encodes the specific transcription factor TerR that is indispensable for terrein cluster induction...
