Various proteins introduced into living modified organism (LMO) crops function in plant defense mechanisms against target insect pests or herbicides. This study analyzed the antifungal effects of an introduced LMO protein, 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) fromAgrobacteriumsp. strain CP4 (CP4-EPSPS). Pure recombinant CP4-EPSPS protein, expressed inEscherichia coli, inhibited the growth of human and plant fungal pathogens (Candida albicans,C. tropicalis,C. krusei,Colletotrichum gloeosporioides,Fusarium solani,F. graminearum, andTrichoderma virens), at minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) that ranged from 62.5 to 250 µg/mL. It inhibited fungal spore germination as well as cell proliferation onC. gloeosporioides. Rhodamine-labeled CP4-EPSPS accumulated on the fungal cell wall and within intracellular cytosol. In addition, the protein induced uptake of SYTOX Green into cells, but not into intracellular mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS), indicating that its antifungal action was due to inducing the permeability of the fungal cell wall. Its antifungal action showed cell surface damage, as observed from fungal cell morphology. This study provided information on the effects of the LMO protein, EPSPS, on fungal growth.
