This project investigates how plants use kiwellin proteins to defend against pathogenic fungi, aiming to understand their structure and function. The research seeks to enhance plant resistance to diseases, contributing to food security and ecological balance.
Plant diseases caused by pathogenic fungi critically affect global food security and plant ecology.
How plants defend themselves against pathogenic invaders and the molecular weaponry involved is still far from being complete.
Kiwellin proteins (KWL) represent an emerging class of highly diverse proteins with antibody-like properties serving as countermeasures of plants against virulence factors secreted by pathogenic fungi.
The aim of this ERC-project is to establish the functional, structural…
