Elucidating the pathway genes involved in the catabolism of 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid:
Data from comparative transcriptomic analysis were used to identify candidate genes with the potential involvement in the utilization of 2, 5- dihydroxybenzoic acid. To identify genes, high transcript levels of A. niger grown on 2, 5-dihydroxybenzoic acid compared to control culture of fructose as sole sources of carbon was used. The fructose samples are deposited in the Short Read Archive under accession number SRP078485
