Abstract
Aspergillus neoniger KCN5, isolated from domestic fermentation starter, showed about five times higher β-glucosidase activity than Aspergillus niger N402 known for its high cellulose degradation ability among reference strains of Aspergillus section Nigri. Whole genome of KCN5 was sequenced using the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform and confirmed to consist of eight chromosomes. Gene annotation revealed that KCN5 has 2,444 more protein-coding genes and 19 more CAZyme-related genes than N402. The genomic information of KCN5, which had higher cellulolytic activities, showed useful properties as an enzyme producer of Korean A. neoniger strains.
