2005 journal article

Expression of the cercosporin transporter, CFP, in tobacco reduces frog-eye lesion size

BIOTECHNOLOGY LETTERS, 27(20), 1543–1550.

By: R. Upchurch n, M. Rose n, M. Eweida n & W. Zuo n

author keywords: cercosporin; frog-eye leaf spot; major facilitator; plant genetic engineering; toxin efflux
MeSH headings : Ascomycota / genetics; Fungal Proteins / biosynthesis; Fungal Proteins / genetics; Membrane Transport Proteins / biosynthesis; Membrane Transport Proteins / genetics; Plant Diseases / genetics; Plants, Genetically Modified / genetics; Plants, Genetically Modified / metabolism; Tobacco / genetics; Tobacco / metabolism
TL;DR: It is concluded that transgenic expression of CFP may have relevance for a disease control strategy in Cercospora-plant pathosystems where cercosporin is implicated in pathogen virulence. (via Semantic Scholar)

2001 journal article

Over-expression of the cercosporin facilitator protein, CFP, in Cercospora kikuchii up-regulates production and secretion of cercosporin

FEMS MICROBIOLOGY LETTERS, 204(1), 89–93.

By: R. Upchurch n, M. Rose n & M. Eweida n

author keywords: cercosporin; CFP; major facilitator; over-expression; resistance; Cercospora kikuchii
MeSH headings : Ascomycota / drug effects; Ascomycota / genetics; Ascomycota / pathogenicity; Ascomycota / physiology; Carrier Proteins / genetics; Carrier Proteins / metabolism; Drug Resistance, Fungal; Enzyme Inhibitors / metabolism; Enzyme Inhibitors / pharmacology; Fungal Proteins; Gene Deletion; Gene Dosage; Gene Expression Regulation, Fungal; Immunoblotting; Membrane Transport Proteins; Perylene / analogs & derivatives; Perylene / metabolism; Perylene / pharmacology; Soybeans / microbiology; Transcription, Genetic; Up-Regulation
TL;DR: The three-fold increase in toxin accumulation, predominantly associated with the mycelium fraction of these CFP multi-copy strains, suggests that CFP may also have a significant, but unknown, role in regulating toxin production. (via Semantic Scholar)

1999 journal article

CFP, the putative cercosporin transporter of Cercospora kikuchii, is required for wild type cercosporin production, resistance, and virulence on soybean

MOLECULAR PLANT-MICROBE INTERACTIONS, 12(10), 901–910.

By: T. Callahan n, M. Rose*, M. Meade, M. Ehrenshaft* & R. Upchurch*

author keywords: drug/proton antiporter
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Ascomycota / genetics; Ascomycota / pathogenicity; Ascomycota / physiology; Base Sequence; Carrier Proteins / genetics; Carrier Proteins / metabolism; DNA, Fungal / genetics; Fungal Proteins / genetics; Fungal Proteins / metabolism; Genetic Complementation Test; Membrane Transport Proteins; Molecular Sequence Data; Open Reading Frames; Perylene / analogs & derivatives; Perylene / metabolism; Sequence Alignment; Sequence Homology, Amino Acid; Soybeans / microbiology; Virulence
TL;DR: It is proposed that CFP (cercosporin facilitator protein) encodes a cercosporin transporter that contributes resistance to cercOSporin by actively exporting cercsporin, thus maintaining low cellular concentrations of the toxin. (via Semantic Scholar)
