Immunomagnetic Purification of Colletotrichum lindemuthianum Appressoria

Abstract: We developed a method to purify appressoria of the bean anthracnose fungus Colletotrichum lindemuthianum for biochemical analysis of the cell surface and to compare appressoria with other fungal structures. We used immunomagnetic separation after incubation of infected bean leaf homogenates with a monoclonal antibody that binds strongly to the appressoria. Preparations with a purity of >90% could be obtained. Examination of the purified appressoria by transmission electron microscopy showed that most had lost … Show more

“…These results indicate that sterol transport by NPC proteins is required for appressorium-mediated plant infection of C. orbiculare . Many but not all Colletotrichum species produce an appressorial cone around the pore ( 45 47 ). Although cones are absent from the appressoria of many direct-penetration fungi, including C. truncatum , C. graminicola , and M. oryzae , some direct penetrators form a similar structure in the appressorium ( 45 , 47 ).…”

Although cones are absent from the appressoria of many direct-penetration fungi, including C. truncatum , C. graminicola , and M. oryzae , some direct penetrators form a similar structure in the appressorium ( 45 , 47 ). Thus, although the appressorial cone is not necessary for direct penetration, these structures might play an important role in plant penetration by C. orbiculare .…”

“…However, the magnetic beads used here posses a relatively larger surface and may covalently bind bioactive molecules. Moreover, the magnetic beads can be collected rapidly in response to a magnetic field (Grant et al 1998;Hutchison et al 2000), making them excellent candidates for application in immunoassays.…”
