Disease relevance of sufC

 

High impact information on sufC

  • Virulence tests showed that sufA and sufC mutants exhibited reduced ability to cause maceration of chicory leaves, whereas a functional sufC gene was necessary for the bacteria to cause systemic invasion of Saintpaulia ionantha [1].
  • In addition, inactivation of sufC and sufD led to increased sensitivity to paraquat [1].
  • The sufB and sufC genes that always occur together in bacteria are also found in plants, and even the malaria parasite, associated with the plastid organelle [2].
