Pectate lyase (Pel) synthesis in Dickeya chrysanthemi has been reported to be hyperinduced in planta and also in the medium containing plant extract in addition to polygalacturonate. In this study, the major components of Pel-hyperinducing fractions were found to be glucose, fructose, and sucrose by TLC and NMR. From the analysis of the sugars and their derivatives, it was found that acyclic d-hexoses with the trans relationship between C-3 and C-5 hydroxyl groups were found to be basic structure required for hyperinducing the expression of a major isozyme in infected plants (i.e. pelE). From the fact that some non-metabolizable sugars such as 2-deoxy-d-glucose and d-fucose could lead to hyperinduction and that the hyperinduction was observed only in the medium containing low concentration (<0.25%) but not higher of the sugars was added, these sugars may be considered to participate in hyperinduction as the signal rather than through their metabolism.
