FIG 2.

Gene expression profiles of class III P450 proteins in response to exogenous 1-dodecanol and dodecanoic acid (lauric acid). The abundances of amplified cDNA fragments of CYP505D1, CYP505D2, CYP505D3, CYP505D4, CYP505D5, CYP505D6, and CYP505D7 transcripts were normalized by comparison with that of ACT1. The relative normalized expression for each gene in fungi upon a 2-h exposure to 1-dodecanol or dodecanoic acid is shown as a ratio to the normalized expression in the absence of the substrate. Data are presented as mean values ± standard deviations (error bars) from four independent experiments.
