Abstract: | Summary The phytotoxin, tabtoxinine- -lactam, is produced by severalPseudomonas syringae pathovars if adequate Zn is available, otherwise its biologically inactive form, tabtoxin, is produced. The Zn is required for the action of a peptidase which cleaves tabtoxin, releasing the toxic -lactam.This research was supported in part by U.S.D.A. Competitive Research Grant No. 83-CRCR-1-1201. |
