Dual sets of chimeric alleles identify specificity sequences for the bE and bW mating and pathogenicity genes of Ustilago maydis.

Molecular and cellular biology - 1 Jan 1998

Yee A R, Kronstad J W

Abstract excerpt

The b mating-type locus of the fungal plant pathogen Ustilago maydis encodes two multiallelic gene products, bE and bW, that control the formation and maintenance of the infectious cell type. Dimerization via the N-terminal regions of bE and bW proteins encoded by alleles of different specificities establishes a homeodomain-containing transcription factor. The bE and bW products encoded by alleles of like...
