The phytotoxin albicidin is a novel inhibitor of DNA gyrase.
Xanthomonas albilineans produces a family of polyketide-peptide compounds called albicidins which are highly potent antibiotics and phytotoxins as a result of their inhibition of prokaryotic DNA replication. Here we show that albicidin is a potent inhibitor of the supercoiling activity of bacterial and plant DNA gyrases, with 50% inhibitory concentrations (40 to 50 nM) less than those of most c...
متن کاملTwo enzymes involved in biosynthesis of the host-selective phytotoxin HC-toxin.
Cochliobolus carbonum race 1 produces a cyclic tetrapeptide HC-toxin, which is necessary for its exceptional virulence on certain varieties of maize. Previous genetic analysis of HC-toxin production by the fungus has indicated that a single genetic locus controls HC-toxin production. Enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of HC-toxin have been sought by following the precedents established for th...
متن کاملCharacterization of epoxide hydrolase activity in Alternaria alternata f. sp. lycopersici. Possible involvement in toxin production.
Using trans-diphenylpropane oxide (tDPPO) as a substrate, we measured epoxide hydrolase (EH) activity in subcellular fractions of Alternaria alternata f. sp. lycopersici (Aal), a fungus that produces host-specific toxins. The activity was mainly (> 99.5%) located in the soluble fraction (100,000 x g supernatant) with the optimum pH at 7.4. An increase of toxin production between days 3 and 9 fo...
متن کاملSulfide as a soil phytotoxin—a review
In wetland soils and underwater sediments of marine, brackish and freshwater systems, the strong phytotoxin sulfide may accumulate as a result of microbial reduction of sulfate during anaerobiosis, its level depending on prevailing edaphic conditions. In this review, we compare an extensive body of literature on phytotoxic effects of this reduced sulfur compound in different ecosystem types, an...
متن کاملRed fluorescent protein (DsRed2) as a novel reporter in Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici.
pAn-DsRed2 vector was constructed for constitutive cytoplasmic expression of the red fluorescent protein (DsRed2) under control of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene promoter from Aspergillus nidulans. DsRed2-transformation of two Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici strains pathogenic against tomato host resulted in bright red cytoplamic fluorescence of the fungus. The transfor...
