Activation of biosynthetic gene clusters by the global transcriptional regulator TRI6 in Fusarium graminearum
21 Jul 2020
Abstract excerpt
In F. graminearum, the transcription factor TRI6 positively regulates the trichothecene biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) leading to the production of the secondary metabolite 15-acetyl deoxynivalenol. Secondary metabolites are not essential for survival, instead, they enable the pathogen to successfully infect its host. F. graminearum has the potential to produce a diverse array of secondary metabolites (SMs)....
