The sulfur/sulfonates transport systems in Xanthomonas citri pv. citri.

Background: The Xanthomonas citri pv. citri (X. citri) is a phytopathogenic bacterium that infects different species of citrus plants where it causes canker disease.

Crystallographic structure and substrate-binding interactions of the molybdate-binding protein of the phytopathogen Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri.

In Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac or X. citri), the modA gene codes for a periplasmic protein (ModA) that is capable of binding molybdate and tungstate as part of the ABC-type transporter required for the uptake of micronutrients.

The molybdate-binding protein (ModA) of the plant pathogen Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri.

The modABC operon of phytopathogen Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (X. citri) encodes a putative ABC transporter involved in the uptake of the molybdate and tungstate anions.

Purification and in vitro characterization of the maltose-binding protein of the plant pathogen Xanthomonas citri.

The uptake of maltose and maltodextrins in gram-negative bacteria is mediated by an ATP-dependent transport complex composed of a periplasmic maltose-binding protein (MBP) and membrane-associated proteins responsible for the formation of a membrane pore and generation of energy to drive the translocation process. In this work, we report the purification and in vitro functional analysis of MBP, encoded by the malE gene, of the plant pathogen Xanthomonas citri, responsible for the canker disease affecting citrus plants throughout the world.

The oligopeptide permease (Opp) of the plant pathogen Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri.

The oligopeptide permease (Opp), a protein-dependent ABC transporter, has been found in the genome of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri ( Xac), but not in Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris ( Xcc).
