الوصف: How maize smut fungus softens up its host The fungal pathogen Ustilago maydis, known as maize (corn) smut, induces plant tumours through the action of effectors that are translocated into the plant tissue. One of these effectors is now shown to be a chorismate mutase, Cmu1. The enzyme is taken up by the host plant cells where it lowers salicylic acid levels, priming them for a successful infection. Inactivation of Cmu1 abolishes virulence, suggesting an interesting new target for disease intervention. Many plant pathogens encode secreted chorismate mutases, indicating a widely used mechanism.
