Objective: With the aim to decipher the mechanisms involved in the transcriptional regulation of feruloyl esterase encoded by faeB, a genetic screen was performed to isolate A. niger mutants displaying inducer-independent expression from the faeB promoter. Result: PfaeB-amdS and PfaeB-lux dual reporter strains were constructed and used to isolate trans-a ...
