Cinnamomin (CIN) belongs to a family of 10 kDa proteins designated as elicitins. Some of these proteins induce a hypersensitive response in diverse plant species, leading to resistance against fungal and bacterial plant pathogens. CIN was crystallized by the vapourdiffusion method using either ammonium sulfate or polyethyleneglycol (PEG) as precipitants in solutions buffered at around pH 7. These crystals are i...
The oomycetous fungus Phytophthora cinnamoni plays and important role in the necrotic activity observed on feeder root of cork oaks (Quercus suber L.) and eucalyptus (eucalyptus marginata Donn. Ex. Sm.)trees reducing the capacity of these hosts to absorb water and nutrients.
