We examined the role of the intracellular α-glucosidase gene malT, which is part of the maltose-utilizing cluster (MAL cluster) together with malR and malP, in amylolytic gene expression in Aspergillus oryzae. malT disruption severely affected fungal growth on medium containing maltose or starch. Furthermore, the transcription level of the α-amylase gene was significantly reduced by malT disruption. Given that the transcription factor AmyR responsible for amylolytic gene expression is activated by isomaltose converted from maltose in
