Abstracttyr1, the gene for tyrosinase, which is related to pigmentation of mycelia in dikaryotic strains, has been cloned and characterized from the basidiomycete Polyporus arcularius. The gene was present in a single copy in the genome. The putative amino acid sequence of Tyr1 was very similar to that of gLeTyr from Lentinula edodes. However, the carboxy-terminal region of the amino acid sequence of Tyr1 was variable among L. edodes, Agaricus bisporus, and this fungus. In the 5′-untranslated region near the initiation codon, a consensus sequence to the Dof1 binding site that is involved in light-regulated gene expression in maize was found. Transcription of tyr1 was photoregulated; transcription of tyr1 in P. arcularius was activated in light mycelia and inactivated in the dark mycelia. These results suggest that tyr1 is a light-regulated gene regulated by a Dof-like transcription factor in P. arcularius. Although the enzyme activity was observed only in a dikaryon, tyr1 was transcripted in both dikaryotic and monokaryotic strains. Thus, activation of the precursor of Tyr1 may require a posttranslational processing event that is developmentally regulated.
