Protein S-palmitoylation regulates the virulence of plant pathogenic fungi by Mengmeng Guo, Leeza Tariq, Fengming Song

“…(mBio 15:e02704-24, 2024, https://doi.org/10.1128/mbio.02704-24) reported that the palmitoyltransferases UvPfa3 and UvPfa4 regulate the virulence of the rice false smut pathogen Ustilaginoidea virens. Through comprehensive characterization of S-palmitoylation sites, they revealed that S-palmitoylated proteins in U. virens are enriched in mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase and autophagy pathways, with MAP kinase UvSlt2 being a key target of UvPfa4-mediated S-palmitoylation. …”
