During evolution, pathogens have developed sophisticated strategies to suppress plant defense responses and promote successful colonization of their hosts. In their attempt to quell host resistance, Gram-negative phytopathogenic bacteria inject type III effectors (T3Es) into plant cells, where they typically target plant components essential for the establishment of defense responses. We have recently shown that the XopD T3E from the strain B100 of Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris (Xop ...[more]
