ABSTRACT

Bradyrhizobium elkanii produces rhizobitoxine, a plant toxin which causes chlorosis in soybeans. Recent studies has shown that rhizobitoxine plays an important role for establishing symbiosis between legumes and Bradyrhizobium elkanii. rhizobitoxine is an inhibitor of ethylene biosynthesis thereby enhances the nodulation. As there are no experimentally determined structure for the B. elkanii reported in the literature, Therefore, we have modeled the protein structure by homology modeling and also docked with potent inhibitor rhizobitoxine having the GOLD score of 67.21. This binding allowed us to predict that this rhizobitoxine might be capable of inhibiting B. elkanii and thus enhancing nodulation. A significant finding of this study provides new insight into the structure and functional features are helpful to design the site-directed mutagenesis experiments and to govern the rhizobial infection of legumes.

Keywords: rhizobitoxine, protein modeling, in slico docking, symbiosis.
