Identification of β-glucosidase in BGLI-overexpressing transformants (T1-T4) by MUG-zymogram assay. Proteins (culture supernatant) from BGLI-overexpressing transformants (T1-T4) and the parental strain (T. reesei QM9414, lane QM) were separated in 8% native PAGE. Culture supernatant of Periconia sp. (bgl1 donor strain) (lane P) grown on MA-medium containing 1% microcrystalline was used as the positive control. β-glucosidase activity was detected by MUG-zymogram assay. Lower arrow indicates the native extracellular β-glucosidase found in T. reesei strain (lanes T1-T4 and QM) whereas the upper arrow represents active β-glucosidase correlated to Periconia sp. BGLI only found in the BGLI- overexpressing transformants as well as Periconia sp. (lanes T1-T4 and P). Lane M, molecular weight marker.
