FAEB-1 — Magnaporthe oryzae 70-15

Summary

MGG_08737 (MoFAEB-1) on chromosome 6 of Magnaporthe oryzae 70-15 encodes a tannase/feruloyl esterase with feruloyl esterase activity (EC 3.1.1.73) and carboxylic ester hydrolase activity, and contains an AB_hydrolase domain. The gene is associated with digestion, xylan breakdown, host invasion, and invasive growth, and its product is localized extracellularly. MoFAEB-1 has been linked to blast disease in rice (Oryza sativa) and barley (Hordeum vulgare). Related genes in other species are associated with plant cell wall degradation and pathogenicity.
