Insights from the genome of the biotrophic fungal plant pathogen Ustilago maydis (2006)

Kahmann, Regine, Bölker, Michael, Ma, Li-Jun, Brefort, Thomas, Saville, Barry J, ...

Ustilago maydis is a ubiquitous pathogen of maize and a well-established model organism for the study of plant-microbe interactions. This basidiomycete fungus does not use aggressive virulence...

Ras Mutation Impairs Epithelial Barrier Function to a Wide Range of Nonelectrolytes

Mullin, James M., Leatherman, James M., Valenzano, Mary Carmen, Huerta, Erika Rendon, Verrechio, Jon, Smith, David M., ...

Although ras mutations have been shown to affect epithelial architecture and polarity, their role in altering tight junctions remains unclear. Transfection of a valine-12 mutated ras construct into...

Endoplasmic Reticulum Glucosidase II Is Required for Pathogenicity of Ustilago maydisW⃞

Schirawski, Jan, Böhnert, Heidi U., Steinberg, Gero, Snetselaar, Karen, Adamikowa, Lubica, Kahmann, Regine

We identified a nonpathogenic strain of Ustilago maydis by tagging mutagenesis. The affected gene, glucosidase1 (gas1), displays similarity to catalytic α-subunits of endoplasmic reticulum (ER)...
