A VASt-domain protein regulates autophagy, membrane tension, and sterol homeostasis in rice blast fungus

Xue-Ming Zhu et al.

Summary: In this study, we identified the protein MoVast1 in Magnaporthe oryzae, which plays key roles in conidial defects, impaired appressorium development, and reduced pathogenicity. MoVast1 monitors tension in the plasma membrane by regulating sterol content, modulating MoTor activity. Furthermore, MoVast1 is crucial for lipid metabolism and the autophagy pathway in M. oryzae.
