Die frühe Infektionsphase von Ustilago maydis (2001)

Brachmann, Andreas

The fungus Ustilago maydis is the causative agent of corn smut disease. Prerequisite for successful infection is the fusion of two compatible haploid sporidia and formation of a dikaryon. This...

An unusual MAP kinase is required for efficient penetration of the plant surface by Ustilago maydis

Brachmann, Andreas, Schirawski, Jan, Müller, Philip, Kahmann, Regine

In Ustilago maydis, pathogenic development is controlled by a heterodimer of the two homeodomain proteins bW and bE. We have identified by RNA fingerprinting a b-regulated gene, kpp6, which encodes...

Mating and Pathogenic Development of the Smut Fungus Ustilago maydis Are Regulated by One Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Cascade

Müller, Philip, Weinzierl, Gerhard, Brachmann, Andreas, Feldbrügge, Michael, Kahmann, Regine

In the phytopathogenic fungus Ustilago maydis, pheromone-mediated cell fusion is a prerequisite for the generation of the infectious dikaryon. The pheromone signal elevates transcription of the...

Prion generation in vitro: amyloid of Ure2p is infectious

Brachmann, Andreas, Baxa, Ulrich, Wickner, Reed Brendon

[URE3] is a prion (infectious protein) of the Ure2 protein of yeast. In vitro, Ure2p can form amyloid filaments, but direct evidence that these filaments constitute the infectious form is still...

The Temperature-Sensitive brush Mutant of the Legume Lotus japonicus Reveals a Link between Root Development and Nodule Infection by Rhizobia[C][W][OA]

Maekawa-Yoshikawa, Makoto, Müller, Judith, Takeda, Naoya, Maekawa, Takaki, Sato, Shusei, Tabata, Satoshi, ...

The brush mutant of Lotus japonicus exhibits a temperature-dependent impairment in nodule, root, and shoot development. At 26°C, brush formed fewer nodules, most of which were not colonized by...
