In silico profiling, docking analysis, and protein interactions of secondary metabolites in Musa spp. Against the SGE1 protein of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense
Banana Fusarium Wilt (BFW), caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), threatens banana crops globally, with the pathogen's virulence partially regulated by the Sge1 transcription factor, which enhances disease severity. Certain Musa species display resistance to Foc, suggesting inherent genetic traits that confer immunity against Sge1Foc. This study utilized bioinformatics tools to investigate the mechanisms underlying this resistance in Musa accuminata subsp. aalaccensis. Through in silico analyses, we explored interactions between Musa spp. and Foc, focusing on the Sge1 protein. Tools such as Anti-SMASH, AutoDockVina 4.0, STRING, and Phoenix facilitated the profiling of secondary metabolites in Musa spp. and the identification of biosynthetic gene clusters involved in defense. Our results indicate that secondary metabolites, including saccharides, terpenes, and polyketides, are crucial to the plant's immune response. Molecular docking studies of selected Musa metabolites, such as 3-Phenylphenol, Catechin, and Epicatechin, revealed 3-Phenylphenol as having the highest binding affinity to the Sge1Foc protein (-6.7 kcal/mol).Further analysis of gene clusters associated with secondary metabolite biosynthesis in Musa spp. identified key domains like Chalcone synthase, Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, Aminotran 1–2, and CoA-ligase, which are integral to phenylpropanoid production—a critical pathway for secondary metabolites. The study highlights that the phenylpropanoid pathway and secondary metabolite biosynthesis are vital for Musa spp. resistance to Foc. Flavonoids and lignin may inhibit Sge1 protein formation, potentially disrupting Foc's cellular processes. These findings emphasize the role of phenylpropanoid pathways and secondary metabolites in combating BFW and suggest that targeting these pathways could offer innovative strategies for enhancing resistance and controlling BFW in banana crops. This research lays the groundwork for developing sustainable methods to protect banana cultivation and ensure food security.
期刊介绍:
Computational Biology and Chemistry publishes original research papers and review articles in all areas of computational life sciences. High quality research contributions with a major computational component in the areas of nucleic acid and protein sequence research, molecular evolution, molecular genetics (functional genomics and proteomics), theory and practice of either biology-specific or chemical-biology-specific modeling, and structural biology of nucleic acids and proteins are particularly welcome. Exceptionally high quality research work in bioinformatics, systems biology, ecology, computational pharmacology, metabolism, biomedical engineering, epidemiology, and statistical genetics will also be considered.
Given their inherent uncertainty, protein modeling and molecular docking studies should be thoroughly validated. In the absence of experimental results for validation, the use of molecular dynamics simulations along with detailed free energy calculations, for example, should be used as complementary techniques to support the major conclusions. Submissions of premature modeling exercises without additional biological insights will not be considered.
Review articles will generally be commissioned by the editors and should not be submitted to the journal without explicit invitation. However prospective authors are welcome to send a brief (one to three pages) synopsis, which will be evaluated by the editors.
