Aspergillus flavipes FP-500 is a Mexican native strain that has been reported as a good producer of xylanases and pectinases; therefore, it promises a strong impact on biotechnology. To provide an overview of protein secretion by A. flavipes, we carried out a comparative proteome analysis of extracellular proteins in liquid cultures with two heterogeneous agro-industrial residues; corn cob (CC) and wheat bran (WB), as carbon sources. Extracellular proteins obtained from both cultures were identified using MS/MS spectrometry. We identified 134 proteins, which were classified into four groups: glycosyl hydrolases (GH), esterases/proteases, miscellaneous proteins, and unidentified proteins. Around 50% of the total proteins identified were GH such as xylanases, β-xylosidases, β-galactosidases, cellulolytic enzymes like β-glucosidase, endoglucanases, and cellobiohydrolases. From this family, a core of 22 (16%) of the proteins identified were found in both substrates, CC and WB, whereas 30% and 54% were unique for CC and WB, respectively. In the esterases/proteases group, proteases, lipases and esterases like feruloylesterases, and acetyl-xylanesterase were identified. Proteins with diverse functions such as monophosphate dehydrogenase or N-acetylglucosaminidase were present. Here, we present strong evidences indicating that the composition and heterogeneity of the used carbon source determine the specific set of protein secreted by the fungus.
