TALEs — 10 Jahre nach Entschlüsselung des Codes

authored by

Abstract

Plant-pathogenic bacteria of the genus Xanthomonas use transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs) to induce gene expression in host plants and promote disease. Deciphering the code of TALE-DNA binding in 2009 was a milestone, which enabled researchers to predict TALE virulence targets and generate resistant plants with modern genome editing tools.
