Exploiting Phase Partitioning of a Giant Trimeric Fibrous Protein Scaffold to Potentiate Chitinase‐Driven Antifungal Activity

Small, EarlyView.
Cstalk, a giant fibrous protein, selectively partitions into the dextran‐rich phase in polyethylene glycol/dextran aqueous two‐phase systems, functioning as a recruiter for proteins of interest. This phase‐selective recruitment can be extended to fungal cell walls, enabling the targeted localization of enzymes and enhancing antifungal activity through ...

Downregulation of galactomannan galactosyltransferase in Cyamopsis tetragonoloba

Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture (PCTOC), 2023
Abstract Guar is a legume of industrial importance due to the presence of gum (galactomannan) in its seed endosperm. The mannose (M)/galactose (G) ratio in galactomannan molecule is critical in deciding the physico-chemical properties of guar gum. Gum with reduced galactose content has better commercial value due to better viscosity.

The Ash Dieback Pathogen Resists the Chemical Defences of Its Host Tree, European Ash, by Depleting Them From the Growth Medium

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant pathogenic fungi are major drivers of disease in forest trees, often causing substantial ecological and economic damage. Ash dieback, caused by the ascomycete Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, has resulted in the widespread decline of Fraxinus excelsior populations throughout Europe.
