Class: XopAK
Family: XopAK
Prototype: XopAK (Xanthomonas euvesicatoria pv. euvesicatoria, ex Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria; strain 85-10)
RefSeq ID: CAJ25517.1 (485 aa)
3D structure: Unknown
XopAK was discovered using a machine-learning approach (Teper et al., 2016).
XopAK, fused to the AvrBs2 reporter, was shown to translocate into plant cells in an hrpF-dependent manner (Teper et al., 2016).
Unknown.
Disease severity, ion leakage, chlorophyll content of pepper plants inoculated with a mutant strain obtained by insertion mutagenesis of xopAK and in planta bacterial growth were not affected as compared to plants inoculated with the parent strain X. euvesicatoria pv. euvesicatoria (Xcv) 85-10 (Teper et al., 2016).
Unknown.
XopAK has been predicted to be a deamidase (Teper et al., 2016).
Unknown.
Yes (e.g., X. euvesicatoria, X. oryzae, X. citri, X. translucens [Barak et al., 2016; Teper et al., 2016]).
Yes (e.g., Ralstonia solanacearum [Teper et al., 2016], Pseudomonas syringae effector HopK1 [Li et al., 2014]).
