Vascular plant pathogens spread through the veins of host causing systemic infections whereas non vascular are confined to infection sites and cause localized symptom development. CbsA -1,4 beta cellobiosidase is a cell wall-degrading enzyme responsible for mutant version it found in infection. Here, we investigate sequence variation structural changes accompanying gene present some pathovars e...

An aminopeptidase gene named XAP has been isolated from Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri, a plant pathogenic bacterium. The bacterium is one of the rare micro-organisms susceptible to ascamycin, an aminoacyl nucleoside antibiotic that inhibits protein synthesis. Sequence analysis reveals that the gene encodes a 311 amino acid protein with a calculated molecular mass of 35134 Da and approx. 50% ...
