Regulation of proteinaceous effector expression in phytopathogenic fungi
Effectors are molecules used by microbial pathogens to facilitate infection via effector-triggered susceptibility or tissue necrosis in their host. Much research has been focussed on the identification and elucidating the function of fungal effectors during plant pathogenesis. By comparison, knowledge of how phytopathogenic fungi regulate the expression of effector genes has been lagging. Sever...
متن کاملMining Effector Proteins in Phytopathogenic Fungi
“Pathogen effector” has been increasingly used in the past decades in the plant-pathogen interactions (Hogenhout et al., 2009).Presently, the definition of pathogen effector commonly adopted the definition given by Sophien Kamoun, that is, effectors are ‘molecules that manipulate host cell structure and function, thereby facilitating infection (virulence factors or toxins) and/or triggering def...
متن کاملVirulence regulation of phytopathogenic fungi by pH.
SIGNIFICANCE Postharvest pathogens can start its attack process immediately after spores land on wounded tissue, whereas other pathogens can forcibly breach the unripe fruit cuticle and then remain quiescent for months until fruit ripens and then cause major losses. RECENT ADVANCES Postharvest fungal pathogens activate their development by secreting organic acids or ammonia that acidify or al...
متن کاملRegulation of intracellular osmotic pressure in phytopathogenic fungi
Intracellular osmotic pressure plays important roles in the growth and pathogenicity of phytopathogenic filamentous fungi. However, the regulatory mechanism of turgor generation in pathogenesis or adaptation to osmolarity changes is poorly understood. We are analyzing the functions of histidine kinases in these processes. Knockout of a histidine kinase gene of the rice blast fungus caused sugar...
متن کاملStructure Analysis Uncovers a Highly Diverse but Structurally Conserved Effector Family in Phytopathogenic Fungi
Phytopathogenic ascomycete fungi possess huge effector repertoires that are dominated by hundreds of sequence-unrelated small secreted proteins. The molecular function of these effectors and the evolutionary mechanisms that generate this tremendous number of singleton genes are largely unknown. To get a deeper understanding of fungal effectors, we determined by NMR spectroscopy the 3-dimensiona...
