Description générale

Tentoxin is a majorly occurring cyclic tetrapeptide mycotoxin that is excreted by the Alternaria fungal species like Alternaria alternata and Alternaria tenuis.

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

It induces chlorosis in germinating seedlings of many dicotyledonous plants. Tentoxin has been postulated to inhibit cyclic photophosphorylation by acting as an energy transfer inhibitor at the terminal steps of ATP synthesis and to target the F1 moiety of photosynthetic H+-ATPases. A kinetic analysis of the action of tentoxin on the chloroplast F1 H+-ATPase (CF1) portion of chloroplast ATP synthase has been reported.
Tentoxin is phytotoxic, which induces chlorosis in plant leaves and germinating seedlings. It also halts photophosphorylation by inhibiting chloroplastic ATP synthase. Tentoxin over energizes thylakoids and is converted to isotentoxin by UV irradiation.

The effect of tentoxin at high concentrations was investigated in thylakoids and proteoliposomes containing bacteriorhodopsin and CF0CF1. Venturicidin-sensitive ATP hydrolysis, ATP-generated delta pH and ATP synthesis were practically 100% inhibited at 2 microM tentoxin, and restored to various extents beyond

Two highly conserved amino acid residues, an arginine and a glutamine, located near the C-terminal end of the gamma subunit, form a "catch" by hydrogen bonding with residues in an anionic loop on one of the three catalytic beta subunits

The mechanism of action of tentoxin on the soluble part (chloroplast F1 H+-ATPase; CF1) of chloroplast ATP synthase was analyzed in the light of new kinetic and equilibrium experiments. Investigations were done regarding the functional state of the enzyme (activation

Some of the most potent phytotoxins are synthesized by microbes. A few of these share molecular target sites with some synthetic herbicides, but many microbial toxins have unique target sites with potential for exploitation by the herbicide industry. Compounds from
