“…The effector is able to cause necrosis on detached rubber tree leaves and on other host plants such as tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) and soy (Glycine max (L.) Merr. (Barthe et al 2007;de Lamotte et al 2007). Although the deduced effector amino acid sequence did not show significant homology with other proteins, structural analysis indicates that the protein structure resembles trypsin-like inhibitors (Barthe et al 2007).…”

“…In particular, the mature cassiicolin domain is highly conserved, with only one amino acid substitution (S instead of T) at position 2. This amino acid is especially important because it carries the sugar moiety (0-methyl-mannose) of the active cassiicolin (Barthe et al 2007;de Lamotte et al 2007). Although the role played by this sugar in toxicity is still unknown, it should be noted that Serine (S), like Threonine (T), can be 0-glycosylated.…”

“…A toxin called cassiicolin was purified and characterized from the culture filtrate of a rubber tree isolate (CCP) from the Philippines (Breton et al 2000;Barthe et al 2007;de Lamotte et al 2007). The toxin is a small, secreted glycosylated protein that plays an important role in C. cassiicola pathogenicity.…”

“…In regards to the peptide activity, Barthe et al (2007) demonstrated that cassiicolin, a 27-residue peptide from Corynespora cassiicola, was able to induce cellular damage on a Hevea brasiliensis clone (PB260). Some peptides produced by different fungi may thus act as virulence factors and could participate in host invasion by the fungus in various plant organs.…”
