Abstract excerpt
The basal transcription factor II H (TFIIH) is a multicomponent complex. In the present study, we characterized a TFIIH subunit Tfb5 by analysing loss- and gain-of-function mutants to gain a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying stress resistance and pathogenicity in the citrus fungal pathogen Alternaria alternata. Tfb5 deficiency mutants (ΔAatfb5) decreased sporulation and pigmentation, and...
