A putative branched-chain-amino-acid transaminase gene required for HC-toxin biosynthesis and pathogenicity in Cochliobolus carbonum.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Dec 1999

Cheng Yi-Qiang, Ahn Joong-Hoon, Walton Jonathan D

Abstract excerpt

The cyclic tetrapeptide HC-toxin is required for pathogenicity of the filamentous fungus Cochliobolus carbonum on maize. HC-toxin production is controlled by a complex locus, TOX2. The isolation and characterization of a new gene of the TOX2 locus, TOXF, is reported. It is shown that TOXF is specifically required for HC-toxin production and pathogenicity. It is present as two or three copies in all...
