Expression and characterization of LacMP, a novel fungal laccase of Moniliophthora perniciosa FA553

Biotechnology Letters, 2015
To characterize a putative laccase gene, LacMP, of Moniliophthora perniciosa FA553 that had been screened using a genome mining approach, then cloned and expressed in Pichia pastoris.The purified recombinant LacMP was ~57 kDa with a maximum laccase activity of 232 U/l.

Recombinant β-1,3-1,4-glucanase from Theobroma cacao impairs Moniliophthora perniciosa mycelial growth

Molecular Biology Reports, 2013
In this work, we identified a gene from Theobroma cacao L. genome and cDNA libraries, named TcGlu2, that encodes a β-1,3-1,4-glucanase. The TcGlu2 ORF was 720 bp in length and encoded a polypeptide of 239 amino acids with a molecular mass of 25.58 kDa. TcGlu2 contains a conserved domain characteristic of β-1,3-1,4-glucanases and presented high protein ...

Synthesis and testing of novel alternative oxidase (AOX) inhibitors with antifungal activity against Moniliophthora perniciosa (Stahel), the causal agent of witches' broom disease of cocoa, and other phytopathogens.

Pest Management Science, 2018
BACKGROUND Moniliophthora perniciosa (Stahel) Aime & Phillips-Mora is the causal agent of witches' broom disease (WBD) of cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) and a threat to the chocolate industry.

Hydrogen peroxide formation in cacao tissues infected by the hemibiotrophic fungus Moniliophthora perniciosa

Plant Physiology and Biochemistry, 2011
In plant-pathogen interaction, the hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) may play a dual role: its accumulation inhibits the growth of biotrophic pathogens, while it could help the infection/colonization process of plant by necrotrophic pathogens. One of the possible pathways of H₂O production involves oxalic acid (Oxa) degradation by apoplastic oxalate oxidase ...
