Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of the CYP51 gene and encoded protein in propiconazole-resistant isolates of Mycosphaerella fijiensis.
Gloria P Cañas-Gutiérrez,Mónica J Angarita-Velásquez,Juan M Restrepo-Flórez,Paola Rodríguez,Claudia Moreno,Rafael Arango +5 more
TL;DR: Several changes in the sequence of the gene encoding sterol 14alpha-demethylase were found that have been described in other fungi as being correlated with resistance to azole fungicides, but no correlation was found between gene expression and propiconazole resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenalenone-type compounds from Musa acuminata var. "Yangambi km 5" (AAA) and their activity against Mycosphaerella fijiensis.
Felipe Otálvaro,J. Nanclares,L. Estella,W. Quinones,W. Echeverri,Rafael Arango,Bernd Schneider +6 more
TL;DR: Two perinaphthenone-type compounds were isolated from the rhizomes of Musa acuminata var.
Journal ArticleDOI
Involvement of Laser Photo‐CIDNP(Chemically Induced Dynamic Nuclear Polarization)‐Reactive Amino Acid Side Chains in Ligand Binding by Galactoside‐Specific Lectins in Solution
Hans-Christian Sieber,Rivka Adar,Rafael Arango,Maria Burchert,Herbert Kaltner,Gian Kayser,Emadeddin Tajkhorshid,Claus-Wilhelm von der Lieth,Robert Kaptein,Nathan Sharon,Johannes F.G. Vliegenthart,Hans-Joachim Gabius +11 more
TL;DR: Modelling of the binding-site architecture of the lectin indicates the occurrence of notable alterations in the orientation of Tyr106/Tyr108 phenyl rings, which will deserve attention for the interpretation of studies comparing wild-type and mutant proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI
C-terminal post-translational proteolysis of plant lectins and their recombinant forms expressed in Escherichia coli. Characterization of "ragged ends" by mass spectrometry.
N. M. Young,D. C. Watson,M. Yaguchi,R. Adar,Rafael Arango,E. Rodriguez-Arango,N. Sharon,P. K. S. Blay,Pierre Thibault +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the molecular masses of Erythrina corallodendron, soybean and peanut agglutinins, Dolichos biflorus lectin, and Phaseolus vulgaris hemagglutinin E were measured using mass spectrometers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Substrate specificity and antifungal activity of recombinant tobacco class I chitinases.
Vivian Suarez,Christian Staehelin,Rafael Arango,Hauke Holtorf,Jan Hofsteenge,Frederick Meins +5 more
TL;DR: The results with the tandem-spacer variant raise the possibility that substantial chitinolytic activity is not essential for inhibition of T. viride growth by CHN A, and suggests that the presence of the chitin-binding domain does not have a major influence on the functions ofCHN A examined.
