Structural and Functional Analysis of the Lectin-like Protein Llp1 Secreted by <i>Ustilago maydis</i> upon Infection of Maize

Structural and Functional Analysis of the Lectin-like Protein Llp1 Secreted by <i>Ustilago maydis</i> upon Infection of Maize

The biotrophic fungus <i>Ustilago maydis</i>, which causes smut disease in maize, secretes numerous proteins upon plant colonization. Some of them, termed effectors, help to evade plant defenses and manipulate cellular processes within the host. The function of many proteins specifically...
