CBS1 from Magnaporthe grisea is a structural and functional homolog of the cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) gene from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Our studies indicated that M. grisea can utilize homocysteine and methionine through a CBS-independent pathway. The results also revealed responses of M. grisea to homocysteine that are reminiscent of human homocystinuria.
稻瘟病菌的CBS1是酿酒酵母中胱硫醚β-合酶(CBS)基因的结构和功能同源物。我们的研究表明,稻瘟病菌可以通过一条不依赖CBS的途径利用同型半胱氨酸和甲硫氨酸。结果还揭示了稻瘟病菌对同型半胱氨酸的反应,这让人联想到人类的同型胱氨酸尿症。
