The Identification of a Target Gene of the Transcription Factor KojR and Elucidation of Its Role in Carbon Metabolism for Kojic Acid Biosynthesis in <i>Aspergillus oryzae</i>

DNA-binding transcription factors are broadly characterized as proteins that bind to specific sequences within genomic DNA and modulate the expression of downstream genes. This study focused on KojR, a transcription factor involved in the metabolism of kojic acid, which is an organic acid synthesize...
