The aspfI gene encoding a ribonucleotoxin, a putative virulence factor of Aspergillus fumigatus, was inactivated by gene disruption. Gene replacement through homologous recombination by the disrupted allele tagged by the hygromycin B resistance marker was performed by transformation of a pathogenic strain. One transformant with the disrupted aspfI gene failed to produce the ASPFI protein and was shown to be pathogenic for mice. We concluded that this ribotoxin is not a main factor in the colonization of the lung tissues by A. fumigatus.
