Mutants of Ustilago maydis defective in production of one of two polypeptides of KP6 toxin from the preprotoxin.

Molecular & general genetics : MGG - 1 Apr 1993

Abstract excerpt

Double-stranded RNA viruses of Ustilago maydis encode secreted killer toxins to which other cells of the same species and closely related species are sensitive. KP6 toxin consists of two polypeptides, alpha and beta, produced from a single precursor preprotoxin. In this work, we cloned complementary DNA for the toxin-encoding segment of two of the KP6 nonkiller mutants NK3 and NK13 that secrete the beta and alpha...
