Tri11 — Fusarium graminearum PH-1

Summary

FGRAMPH1_01G13117 (symbol Tri11) on chromosome 2 of Fusarium graminearum PH-1 encodes a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase, a heme- and iron-binding oxidoreductase that acts on paired donors with incorporation of molecular oxygen. The gene is associated with membrane localisation and with toxin anabolism, aflatoxin anabolism, mycotoxin anabolism, and terpenoid anabolism. Related genes in other species link the family to isotrichodermin C-15 hydroxylase. The gene is also connected to several other Fusarium genes, including TRI11, and shows sequence similarity to genes from Verticillium dahliae and Fusarium oxysporum pathovars.
