Many biosynthetic reactions and bioconversions are limited by low availab-ility of NADPH. With the purpose of increasing the NADPH concentra-tion and⁄or the flux through the pentose phosphate pathway inAspergillus niger, the genes encoding glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (gsdA), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (gndA) and transketolase (tktA) were cloned and overexpressed in separate strains. | ềFEBS Journal Increased NADPH concentration obtained by metabolic engineering of the pentose phosphate pathway in Aspergillus niger Bjarne R.

With the purpose of increasing the NADPH concentration and or the flux through the pentose phosphate pathway in Aspergillus niger the genes encoding glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase gsdA 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase gndA and transketolase tktA were cloned and overexpressed in separate strains. Intracellular NADPH concentration was increased two- to ninefold as a result of 13-fold overproduction of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase. Although overproduction of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase and transketolase changed the concentration of several metabolites it did not result in increased NADPH concentration. To establish the effects of overexpression of the three genes wild-type and overexpressing strains were characterized in detail
