abstract = {Ustilago maydis is a biotrophic fungus causing corn smut
disease in maize. The secreted effector protein Pit2 is an
inhibitor of papain-like cysteine proteases (PLCPs)
essential for virulence. Pit2 inhibitory function relies on
a conserved 14 amino acids motif (PID14). Here we show that
synthetic PID14 peptides act more efficiently as PLCP
inhibitors than the full-length Pit2 effector. Mass
spectrometry shows processing of Pit2 by maize PLCPs, which
releases an inhibitory core motif from the PID14 sequence.
Mutational analysis demonstrates that two conserved residues
are essential for Pit2 function. We propose that the Pit2
effector functions as a substrate mimicking molecule: Pit2
is a suitable substrate for apoplastic PLCPs and its
processing releases the embedded inhibitor peptide, which in
turn blocks PLCPs to modulate host immunity. Remarkably, the
PID14 core motif is present in several plant associated
fungi and bacteria, indicating the existence of a conserved
microbial inhibitor of proteases (cMIP).},
