PthA4AT, a 7.5-repeats transcription activator-like (TAL) effector from Xanthomonas citri ssp. citri, triggers citrus canker resistance

Transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs) are important effec tors of Xanthomonas spp. that manipulate the transcriptome of the host plant, conferring susceptibility or resistance to bacterial infection. Xanthomonas citri ssp. citri variant AT (X. citri AT ) triggers a host-specific h...

description Transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs) are important effec tors of Xanthomonas spp. that manipulate the transcriptome of the host plant, conferring susceptibility or resistance to bacterial infection. Xanthomonas citri ssp. citri variant AT (X. citri AT ) triggers a host-specific hypersensitive response (HR) that suppresses citrus canker development. However, the bacterial effector that elicits this process is unknown. In this study, we show that a 7.5-repeat TALE is responsible for triggering the HR. PthA4AT was identified within the pthA repertoire of X. citri AT followed by assay of the effects on different hosts. The mode of action of PthA4AT was characterized using protein-binding microarrays and testing the effects of dele tion of the nuclear localization signals and activation domain on plant responses. PthA4AT is able to bind DNA and activate transcrip tion in an effector binding element-dependent manner. Moreover, HR requires PthA4AT nuclear localization, suggesting the activation of executor resistance (R) genes in host and non-host plants. This is the first case where a TALE of unusually short length performs a biological function by means of its repeat domain, indicating that the action of these effectors to reprogramme the host transcriptome following nuclear localization is not limited to ‘classical’ TALEs.
