Pseudomonas syringae phytotoxins: Mode of action, regulation, and biosynthesis by peptide and polyketide synthetases
(American Society for Microbiology, 1999-06)
Novel virulence gene of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato strain DC3000
(American Society for Microbiology, 2005-11)
Previously, we conducted a mutant screen of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato strain DC3000 to identify genes that contribute to virulence on Arabidopsis thaliana plants. Here we describe the characterization of one mutant ...
Biosynthetic gene cluster for coronamic acid, an ethylcyclopropyl amino acid, contains genes homologous to amino acid-activating enzymes and thioesterases
(American Society for Microbiology, 1994-12)
Coronamic acid (CMA), an ethylcyclopropyl amino acid derived from isoleucine, functions as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of coronatine, a chlorosis-inducing phytotoxin produced by Pseudomonas syringae pv. glycinea ...
AlgT gene of Pseudomonas syringae pv. glycinea and new insights into the transcriptional organization of the algT-muc gene cluster
(American Society for Microbiology, 2006-12)
The phytopathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. glycinea infects soybean plants and causes bacterial blight. In addition to P. syringae, the human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the soil bacterium Azotobacter ...
Characterization of Cfa1, a monofunctional acyl carrier protein involved in the biosynthesis of the phytotoxin coronatine
(American Society for Microbiology, 2004-04)
Cfa1 was overproduced in Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas syringae, and the degree of 4'-phosphopantetheinylation was determined. The malonyl-coenzyme A:acyl carrier protein transacylase (FabD) of P. syringae was overproduced ...
Copper as a signal for alginate sythesis in Pseudomonas syringae pv. Syringae
(American Society for Microbiology, 1995-06)
Plant-associated pseudomonads are commonly exposed to copper bactericides, which are applied to reduce the disease incidence caused by these bacteria. Consequently, many of these bacteria have acquired resistance or tolerance ...
Regulation of alginate biosynthesis in Pseudomonas syringae pv. Syringae
(American Society for Microbiology, 1999-06)
Both Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the phytopathogen P. syringae produce the exopolysaccharide alginate. However, the environmental signals that trigger alginate gene expression in P. syringae are different from those in P. ...
Effects of environmental and nutritional factors on production of the polyketide phytotoxin coronatine by Pseudomonas syringae pv. glycinea
(American Society for Microbiology, 1993-05)
Pseudomonas syringae pv. glycinea PG4180 produces the polyketide phytotoxin coronatine. The effects of environmental, nutritional, and host factors on growth and coronatine production by PG4180 were examined by varying the ...
