Disease relevance of nolL

  • NolL of Rhizobium sp. strain NGR234 is required for O-acetyltransferase activity [1].
 

High impact information on nolL

  • We show that the NolL-dependent acetylation is specific for the fucosyl penta-N-acetylglucosamine species [2].
  • This explained various responses of lupins and serradella plants to infection by mutants in nodZ and nolL genes, knowing that serradella is a stringent legume while lupins are more promiscuous legumes [3].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of nolL

  • It has been claimed, based on sequence analysis, that NolL from R. loti participates in the 4-O-acetylation of the fucosyl residue of the Nod factors, as an acetyl-transferase (D. B. Scott, C. A. Young, J. M. Collins-Emerson, E. A. Terzaghi, E. S. Rockman, P. A. Lewis, and C. E. Pankhurst. Mol. Plant-Microbe Interact. 9:187-197, 1996) [4].
