CLPG1, an endopolygalacturonase (endoPG) gene of Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, was transferred to tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) leaves by using the Agrobacterium tumefaciens transient delivery system. The following four constructs were prepared: CLPG1, with or without its signal peptide (SP; PG1, PG1deltaSP); CLPG1 with the tobacco expansin1 SP instead of its own SP (Exp::PG1deltaSP); and a mutated version of the...
