QUICK LINKS

Fusicoccin, originally found in Fusicoccum amygdali Del., is shown to be an activator of H(+)-ATPase. Mechanistic studies suggest that Fusicoccin forms a complex with the 14-3-3 proteins of the ATPase and activates H+ pumping across the plasma membrane. Fusicoccin displays toxic characteristics towards cells by increasing the rate of proton extrusion, causing acidification of the surrounding of the cell and hyperpolarization of the cell. Other experiments demonstrate that the Fusicoccin toxin also induces stimulation of H2O2 production and leakage of cytochrome c from the mitochondria which results in disturbance of the electron transport chain of the mitochondrial membrane.
