BZcon1, a SANT/Myb-Type Gene Involved in the Conidiation of Cochliobolus carbonum
The fungal pathogen Cochliobolus carbonum (anamorph, Bipolaris zeicola) causes Northern Leaf Spot, leading to a ubiquitous and devastating foliar disease of corn in Yunnan Province, China. Asexual spores (conidia) play a major role in both epidemics and pathogenesis of Northern Leaf Spot, but the molecular mechanism of conidiation in C. carbonum has remained elusive. Here, using a map-based clo...
متن کاملTargeted mutants of Cochliobolus carbonum lacking the two major extracellular polygalacturonases.
The filamentous fungus Cochliobolus carbonum produces endo-alpha 1,4-polygalacturonase (endoPG), exo-alpha 1,4-polygalacturonase (exoPG), and pectin methylesterase when grown in culture on pectin. Residual activity in a pgn1 mutant (lacking endoPG) was due to exoPG activity, and the responsible protein has now been purified. After chemical deglycosylation, the molecular mass of the purified pro...
متن کاملEndopolygalacturonase is not required for pathogenicity of Cochliobolus carbonum on maize.
A gene (PGN1) encoding extracellular endopolygalacturonase was isolated from the fungal maize pathogen Cochliobolus carbonum race 1. A probe was synthesized by polymerase chain reaction using oligonucleotides based on the endopolygalacturonase amino acid sequence. Genomic and cDNA copies of the gene were isolated and sequenced. The corresponding mRNA was present in C. carbonum grown on pectin b...
متن کاملA cyclic peptide synthetase gene required for pathogenicity of the fungus Cochliobolus carbonum on maize.
Specificity in many plant-pathogen interactions is determined by single genes in pathogen and host. The single locus for host-selective pathogenicity (TOX2) in the fungus Cochliobolus carbonum governs production of a cyclic tetrapeptide named HC-toxin. We have isolated a chromosomal region, 22 kilobases (kb) long, that contains a 15.7-kb open reading frame (HTS1) encoding a multifunctional cycl...
متن کاملInhibition of maize histone deacetylases by HC toxin, the host-selective toxin of Cochliobolus carbonum.
HC toxin, the host-selective toxin of the maize pathogen Cochliobolus carbonum, inhibited maize histone deacetylase (HD) at 2 microM. Chlamydocin, a related cyclic tetrapeptide, also inhibited HD activity. The toxins did not affect histone acetyltransferases. After partial purification of histone deacetylases HD1-A, HD1-B, and HD2 from germinating maize embryos, we demonstrated that the differe...
