Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In our previous study, it was suggested that tolnifanide resistance gene encodes geranylgeranyl transferase (GGT1). In this study, we introduced the mutated GGT1 gene (C406Y) into the wild-type strain of Bipolaris maydis. The transformants expressing mutated GGT1 showed highly resistance to tolnifanide. We attempted gene knockout of GGT1 but no gene-disrupted strain was obtained, suggesting that GGT1 is essential gene in B. maydis. As a result of examining the localization of RHO1, predicted to undergo geranylgeranylation modification, it was suggested that tolnifanide may inhibit localization of RHO1.
