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.
