A conserved enzyme of smut fungi facilitates cell-to-cell extension in the plant bundle sheath

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Bilal u00d6kmen from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the paper: A conserved enzyme of smut fungi facilitates cell-to-cell extension in the plant bundle sheath, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 19/05/2022
  • what: The authors show that Erc1 has a cell type-specific virulence function, being necessary for fungal cellto-cell extension in the plant bundle sheath and this function is fully conserved in the Erc1 orthologue of the barley pathogen Ustilago hordei.
  • how: The TLC results showed that Erc1 could hydrolyze laminarihexaose demonstrating a u03b2-13-glucanase activity.
