Several host-selective toxins have been isolated in pure form from culture filtrates of Cochliobolus victoriae.Acid hydrolysis of the major toxin, victorin C (apparent mol.wt 796), produced five fragments to which structures 1-5 have been assigned. Spectroscopic techniques revealed that the toxin contains an additional subunit corresponding to 6; thus all the components of victorin C are accounted for.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
