Cotransformation and Targeted Gene Inactivation in the Maize Anthracnose Fungus, Glomerella graminicola.
Cotransformation of Glomerella graminicola was achieved with the G. graminicola genes TUB1R1 (encoding a beta-tubulin which confers resistance to the fungicide benomyl) and PYR1 (encoding orotate phosphoribosyl transferase, which confers pyrimidine prototrophy). The cotransformation frequency was about 30% when selection was for pyrimidine prototrophy (Pyr) and 87% when selection was for benomy...
متن کاملThe application of laser microdissection to in planta gene expression profiling of the maize anthracnose stalk rot fungus Colletotrichum graminicola.
Laser microdissection (LM) offers a potential means for deep sampling of a fungal plant-pathogen transcriptome during the infection process using whole-genome DNA microarrays. The use of a fluorescent protein-expressing fungus can greatly facilitate the identification of fungal structures for LM sampling. However, fixation methods that preserve both tissue histology and protein fluorescence, an...
متن کاملThe Role of Highly Conserved Tryptophan in the Sixth Conserved Region at Substrate Specificity of α- amylase
Early in this study, an α-Amylase from Bacillus megaterium WHO (BMW) was isolated from hot springs of Ramsar (North of Iran), and its gene was cloned in E.coli. Based on its conserved sequence regions and substrate specificity, it was classified as intermediary group enzymes with the specificity of oligo-1,6-glucosidase and neopullulanase subfamilies. In the sixth conserved re...
متن کاملEnterotoxigenic Escherichia coli secretes a highly conserved mucin-degrading metalloprotease to effectively engage intestinal epithelial cells.
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a leading cause of death due to diarrheal illness among young children in developing countries, and there is currently no effective vaccine. Many elements of ETEC pathogenesis are still poorly defined. Here we demonstrate that YghJ, a secreted ETEC antigen identified in immunoproteomic studies using convalescent patient sera, is required for efficient ...
متن کاملA secreted Ustilago maydis effector promotes virulence by targeting anthocyanin biosynthesis in maize
The biotrophic fungus Ustilago maydis causes smut disease in maize with characteristic tumor formation and anthocyanin induction. Here, we show that anthocyanin biosynthesis is induced by the virulence promoting secreted effector protein Tin2. Tin2 protein functions inside plant cells where it interacts with maize protein kinase ZmTTK1. Tin2 masks a ubiquitin-proteasome degradation motif in ZmT...
