[Pathogen-induced plant proteins].
Pathogen-induced plant proteins are classified by their functional characteristics: (a) involvement in plant cell signaling; (b) inhibition of enzymes excreted by the pathogens; (c) stabilization of plant cell walls or ability to trigger apoptosis; (d) enzymatic activity producing lysis of cell walls of pathogenic fungi and bacteria; (e) enzymatic activity in metabolic pathways of phenylpropane and terpene phytoalexins; and (f) ability to affect the pathogens directly, by disturbing the function of their cell membranes or by inactivating their ribosomes. Examples of transgenic plants with increased immunity against pathogens are also provided.
