Sensor kinases RetS and LadS regulate Pseudomonas syringae type VI secretion and virulence factors.
Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae B728a is a resident on leaves of common bean, where it utilizes several well-studied virulence factors, including secreted effectors and toxins, to develop a pathogenic interaction with its host. The B728a genome was recently sequenced, revealing the presence of 1,297 genes with unknown function. This study demonstrates that a 29.9-kb cluster of genes in the B7...
متن کاملChemotaxis of Pseudomonas syringae subsp. savastanoi Virulence Mutants.
Several mutants of Pseudomonas syringae subsp. savastanoi were tested for their ability to sense and respond to a chemotactic gradient in low concentrations of yeast extract. The mutants were deficient in one or both of the genes coding for the synthesis of the plant hormones indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and isopentenyl adenosine. Mutations which resulted in the loss of IAA production were due to...
متن کاملComparative genomics of host-specific virulence in Pseudomonas syringae.
While much study has gone into characterizing virulence factors that play a general role in disease, less work has been directed at identifying pathogen factors that act in a host-specific manner. Understanding these factors will help reveal the variety of mechanisms used by pathogens to suppress or avoid host defenses. We identified candidate Pseudomonas syringae host-specific virulence genes ...
متن کاملNovel virulence gene of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato strain DC3000.
Previously, we conducted a mutant screen of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato strain DC3000 to identify genes that contribute to virulence on Arabidopsis thaliana plants. Here we describe the characterization of one mutant strain, DB4H2, which contains a single Tn5 insertion in PSPTO3576, an open reading frame that is predicted to encode a protein belonging to the TetR family of transcriptional r...
متن کاملPseudomonas syringae hijacks plant stress chaperone machinery for virulence.
Plant heat shock protein Hsp70 is the major target of HopI1, a virulence effector of pathogenic Pseudomonas syringae. Hsp70 is essential for the virulence function of HopI1. HopI1 directly binds Hsp70 through its C-terminal J domain and stimulates Hsp70 ATP hydrolysis activity in vitro. In plants, HopI1 forms large complexes in association with Hsp70 and induces and recruits cytosolic Hsp70 to ...
