MYCGR3G109989 — Zymoseptoria tritici

Summary

MYCGR3G109989 (symbol sidI) on Zymoseptoria tritici chromosome 6 encodes a protein with ligase activity, including 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate-serine ligase and oxalate-CoA ligase activities, and binds ATP and phosphopantetheine. The gene is associated with the biosynthesis of enterobactin, ferricrocin, N',N'',N'''-triacetylfusarinine C, nonribosomal peptides, polyketides, toxins, flavonoids, ergosterol, and fatty acids, as well as acetyl-CoA metabolism and secondary metabolism. It is linked to cellular responses to hydrogen peroxide and iron ion starvation, and localizes to the peroxisome, cytoplasm, and enterobactin synthetase complex. Studies of related genes in other species connect the family to reduced virulence.
