Structures and functions of oligosaccharins. Progress report, June 15, 1993--March 14, 1995
This research focuses on the following: Purification, characterization, and cell wall localization of an {alpha}-fucosidase that inactivates a xyloglucan oligosaccharin; Oligogalacturonides inhibit the formation of roots on tobacco explants; Activation of a tobacco glycine-rich protein gene by a fungal glucan preparation; Fusarium moniliforme secretes four endopolygalacturonases derived from a single gene product; Polygalacturonase-inhibiting protein accumulates in Phaseolus vulgaris L. in response to wounding, elicitors and fungal infection; Generation of {beta}-glucan elicitors by plant enzymes and inhibition of the enzymes by a fungal protein; Polygalacturonase inhibitor proteins from bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), pear (Pyrus communis L.) and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum): Immunological relatedness and specificity of polygalacturonase inhibition; Fungi protect themselves against plant pathogenesis-related glycanases; Purification, cloning, and characterization of two xylanases from Magnaporthe grisea, the rice blast fungus; and Molecular cloning and expression pattern of an {alpha}-fucosidase gene from pea seedlings.
