Identification of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) of the highly transcribed genes in Aspergillus niger
Determined sequences of 285 randomly selected clones in a 3＇-directed cDNA library of Aspergillus niger could identify expressed seqeunce tags (ESTs) of genes highly expressed. One EST appeared seven times, one six times, one five times, four three times and 12 twice. Out of these 19 ESTs, ten were identified in GenBank, but none was of A. niger, suggesting that there are a lot of unidentified genes highly expressed in A. niger.
