Reference	PMP-55-69
Title	A homologue of a gene implicated in the virulence of human fungal diseases is present in a plant fungal pathogen and is expressed during infection
Journal	Physiological and Molecular Plant Pathology
Year	1999
Volume	55
Pages	69-73
Author	Hall N Keon JPR Hargreaves JA
Abstract	Summary: The gene encoding SnodProt1 (SP1), an extracellular protein secreted by the wheat fungal pathogen, Stagonospora (Septoria) nodorum, has been isolated and characterised. The deduced amino acid sequence exhibits significant similarity to antigenic and allergenic proteins encoded by genes cloned from the human fungal pathogens, Coccidioides immitis and Aspergillus fumigatus, respectively. SP1 also exhibits similarity to an EST cDNA derived from the rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe grisea, grown on isolated rice cell walls. Northern and Western blot analyses show that the gene encoding SP1 is expressed and that the protein is secreted during infection of wheat leaves
