Abstract excerpt
The production of cell wall-degrading enzymes (wall depolymerases) by plant pathogenic fungi is under catabolite (glucose) repression. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the SNF1 gene is required for expression of catabolite-repressed genes when glucose is limiting. An ortholog of SNF1, ccSNF1, was isolated from the maize pathogen Cochliobolus carbonum, and ccsnf1 mutants of HC toxin-producing (Tox2(+)) and HC...
