Abstract

Citrate transport is believed to play a significant role in citrate production by filamentous fungi; however, details of the process remain unclear. This study characterized two citrate transporters from Aspergillus luchuensis mut. kawachii . Biochemical and gene disruption analyses showed that CtpA and YhmA are mitochondrial citrate transporters required for normal hyphal growth, conidium formation, cytosolic acetyl-CoA synthesis, and citric acid production. The characteristics of fungal citrate transporters elucidated in this study will help expand our understanding of the citrate production mechanism and facilitate the development and optimization of industrial organic acid fermentation processes.
