Abstract:
... Chitosans, a family of ß-(1,4)-linked, partially N-acetylated polyglucosamines, are considered to be among the most versatile and most promising functional biopolymers. Chemical analysis and bioactivity studies revealed that the functionalities of chitosans strongly depend on the polymers’ degree of polymerization and fraction of acetylation. More recently, the pattern of acetylation (PA) has been ...

Abstract:
... Rust fungi like Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici are known to change their cell wall properties upon entering the plant tissue. Immunohistochemistry revealed the cellular localization of two class III chitin synthase isoforms in rust mycelia developing on and in the host plant. Isoform IIIa is restricted to fungal infection structures growing on the surface of the plant, such as germ tubes and, pr ...

Abstract:
... We have isolated and characterised the first set of chitin synthase genes from a rust fungus, a large group of economically highly important, obligately biotrophic plant pathogens. Puccinia graminis was used as a model organism for the rust fungi which are not well investigated on the molecular level today. One of the major structural components of most fungal cell walls is the chitin polymer whic ...

Abstract:
... A glycopeptide elicitor prepared from germ tubes of the rust fungus Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Erikss. & Henn (Pgt),as well as chitin oligosaccharides, chitosan, and methyl jasmonate (MJ) stimulated lipoxygenase (LOX) activity (E.C. 1.13.11.12) in wheat (Triticum aestivum) leaves. Immunoblot analysis using anti-LOX antibodies revealed the induction of 92- and 103-kD LOX species after P ...
