Ustilago maydis effector Jsi1 interacts with Topless corepressor, hijacking plant jasmonate/ethylene signaling

Martin Darino et al.

Summary: This study characterized the Ustilago maydis effector protein Jasmonate/Ethylene signaling inducer 1 (Jsi1), showing its interaction with plant corepressor TPL/TPR proteins and activation of the ERF branch in the JA/ET signaling pathway. The induction of the ERF branch by Jsi1 leads to increased susceptibility to biotrophic pathogens in plants. The identification of EAR-motif-containing effector candidates from various fungal species suggests a convergent evolution of effectors modulating the TPL/TPR corepressor hub.

A small Ustilago maydis effector acts as a novel adhesin for hyphal aggregation in plant tumors

Fumi Fukada et al.

Summary: The novel core effector lep1 is highly expressed in maize smut disease and contributes to tumor formation and virulence. Mutants lacking lep1 show attenuated growth and spore production in tumors, while constitutive expression induces cell aggregation and enhanced hydrophobicity on the colony surface. Lep1 acts as a new kind of cell adhesin, working with other surface-active proteins to facilitate hyphal proliferation and morphological changes associated with spore formation.

Ustilaginoidea virens modulates lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation in rice flowers during infection

Xiaoyang Chen et al.

Summary: The post-translational modification lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation (K-hib) plays a significant role in gene transcription, metabolism, and enzymatic activity in rice. Despite having identified K-hib sites in rice, the K-hib status of proteins in rice flowers during infection with Ustilaginoidea virens remains unclear. Through quantitative proteomics, researchers identified K-hib-modified proteins in rice flowers, with levels of K-hib substantially reduced during U. virens infection. Additionally, histone K-hib was found to be involved in the expression of disease-resistance genes, with most quantified sites on core histones H3 downregulated upon infection.
