Effects of branched-chain amino acids on the growth and the riboflavin production of WT and MT strains. A Pathway of branched-chain amino acid biosynthesis. Dot lines indicate the feedback inhibition of each amino acid. B Growth and mycelial color of WT and MT strains in minimal agar medium with each branched-chain amino acid. WT and MT strains were cultivated in minimal agar medium with 1 mM each branched-chain amino acid for 2 weeks. C Time course of riboflavin production in WT and MT strains in minimal liquid medium in the presence of valine. WT and MT strains were cultivated in the minimal liquid medium with 1 mM valine for 5 days, and the production of riboflavin was measured. The error bars represent the standard deviation (n = 3)
