Activation of three targets by a TAL effector confers susceptibility to bacterial blight of cotton

ABSTRACT: Xanthomonas spp. employ transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs) to promote pathogenicity by activating host susceptibility (S) genes. Cotton GhSWEET10 is an S gene targeted by a TALE in an early isolate of Xanthomonas citri pv. malvacearum (Xcm), but not by recent field Xcm isolates. To understand the pathogenicity shift in Xcm and its adaptation to cotton, we assembled the whole genome and the TALE repertoire of three recent Xcm Texas field isolates. A newly evolved TALE, Tal7b, activated different GhSWEET genes, GhSWEET14a and GhSWEET14b. Simultaneous activation of GhSWEET14a and GhSWEET14b resulted in pronounced water-soaked lesions. Transcriptome profiling coupled with TALE-binding element prediction identified a pectin lyase as an additional Tal7b target, quantitatively contributing to Xcm virulence alongside GhSWEET14a/b. CRISPR-Cas9-based gene editing supported the function of GhSWEETs as S genes in cotton bacterial blight and the promise of disrupting the TALE-binding site in these genes to control the disease. Collectively, our findings elucidate the rapid evolution of TALEs in Xanthomonas field isolates and highlight the virulence mechanism wherein TALEs induce multiple S genes simultaneously to promote pathogenicity.

Context and number of non‐canonical repeat variable diresidues (RVDs) impede the design of TALE proteins with improved DNA targeting

Project description:A particularly promising approach for engineering more precise TALE proteins is to better understand non-canonical RVDs. The RVD repertoire employed by Xanthomonas extends well beyond just the four canonical RVD types, and natural TALE repeat arrays often utilize serial combinations of both canonical and non-canonical RVDs in a manner which is not fully understood. Attempts to characterize these non-canonical RVDs have utilized various approaches, in terms of both TALE design and experimental method. Some studies have considered just TALEs of particular biological relevance, others have looked at large numbers of different RVDs within a fixed repeat-array-context, and still others have designed custom TALEs to address hypotheses about optimal RVD positioning within the repeat array. Methods for inferring the DNA binding activity of these TALEs have included sequencing of cleaved DNA fragments from TALE-nuclease fusions; ELISA assays for TALE-oligonucleotide binding; reporter assays for TALEs’ transcriptional-activating effects; and in silico modeling. In this study we employ a novel “wholesale swap-out” approach to characterize 3 non-canonical RVDs for thymine and 4 non-canonical RVDs for guanine.

RNA-seq on tomato infected with Xanthomonas euvesicatoria

Project description:Transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs) from Xanthomonas activate host susceptibility genes to promote disease. We report here the tomato transcriptome changes after inoculation with Xanthomonas strains delivering Brg11*, a TALE-like effector from Ralstonia solanacearum or delivering the Brg11-derivative lacking the DNA binding domain as a control. After diffenential gene expression analysis we identified 117 genes were up-regulated and 8 genes were down-regulated by Brg11. This provides us a candidate gene list facilitating identification of Brg11 direct target genes in tomato.

Identification of new protein-coding genes with a potential role in the virulence of the plant pathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria

Project description:Bacteria of the genus Xanthomonas are economically important plant pathogens. Pathogenicity of Xanthomonas spp. depends on the type III-secretion system and additional virulence determinants. The number of sequenced Xanthomonas genomes increases rapidly, however, accurate annotation of these genomes is difficult, because it relies on gene prediction programs. In this study, we used a mass-spectrometry (MS)-based approach to identify the proteome of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria (Xcv) also known as X. euvesicatoria, a well-studied member of plant-pathogenic Xanthomonadaceae. Results Using different culture conditions, MS-datasets were searched against a six-frame-translated genome database of Xcv. In total, we identified 2,593 proteins covering 55% of the Xcv genome, including 764 hitherto hypothetical proteins. Our proteogenomic approach identified 30 new protein-coding genes and allowed correction of the N-termini of 50 protein-coding genes. For five novel and two N-terminally corrected genes the corresponding proteins were confirmed by immunoblot. Furthermore, our data indicate that two putative type VI-secretion systems encoded in Xcv play no role in bacterial virulence which was experimentally confirmed.

Genomics-enabled analysis of the emergent disease cotton bacterial blight

Project description:Cotton bacterial blight (CBB), an important disease of (Gossypium hirsutum) in the early 20th century, had been controlled by resistant germplasm for over half a century. Recently, CBB re-emerged as an agronomic problem in the United States. Analysis of cotton variety planting statistics indicates a steady increase in the percentage of susceptible cotton varieties grown each year since 2009. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that strains from the current outbreak cluster with race 18 Xanthomonas citri pv. malvacearum (Xcm) strains. Illumina based draft genomes were generated for thirteen Xcm isolates. These genomes, along with 4 previously published Xcm genomes, encode 24 conserved and nine variable type three effectors. Strains in the race 18 clade contain 3 to 5 more effectors than other Xcm strains. SMRT sequencing of two geographically and temporally diverse strains of Xcm yielded circular chromosomes and accompanying plasmids. These genomes encode eight and thirteen distinct transcription activator-like effector genes. RNA-sequencing revealed 52 genes induced within two cotton cultivars by both tested Xcm strains. This gene list includes a homeologous pair of genes, with homology to the known susceptibility gene, MLO. In contrast, the two strains of Xcm induce different class III SWEET sugar transporters. Subsequent genome wide analysis revealed patterns in the overall expression of homeologous gene pairs in cotton after inoculation by Xcm. These data reveal host-pathogen specificity at the genetic level and strategies for future development of resistant cultivars.

Context Influences on TALE-DNA Binding Revealed by Quantitative Profiling

Project description:Transcription Activator Like Effector (TALE) proteins have been described as recognizing DNA using a simple DNA-binding code, which has allowed for their use in many techniques requiring precise targeting of genomic loci. The TALE DNA binding domain is composed of an array of short repeats that differ in two key DNA-contacting positions, the repeat variable diresidues (RVD); the identities of the amino acids at these positions determine which base the repeat binds. While this simple code has been used successfully to design TALEs to target specific sequences, off-target binding has also been observed, indicating the need for a more rigorous understanding of the factors that determine TALE specificity. In this study, we assayed the DNA binding specificities of 21 TALE proteins of different lengths and RVD compositions using custom-designed Protein Binding Microarrays (PBMs). Position weight matrices derived from these data were used to develop a model to predict the specificity of any TALE protein. This modeling shows the large influence of protein length, RVD position, and neighboring RVD identity on binding specificity, indicating that the simple cipher-like code does not fully capture the complexity of TALE-DNA binding.

Mutation Mapping of 31 Streptococcus suis strains

Project description:Identification of Genes and Genomic Islands Correlated with High Pathogenicity through Tilling Microarray-Based Comparative Genomics in S. suis. Streptococcus suis is an important zoonotic pathogen that can cause meningitis and sepsis in both pigs and humans. S. suis isolates have been categorized into groups of different levels of pathogenicity, with sequence type (ST) ST1 clonal complex strains having a higher degree of virulence than other STs. However, the genetic basis of the differences in pathogenicity is still poorly understood. In this study, a comprehensive genomic comparison of 31 S. suis strains from different clinical sources with the genome sequence of the high pathogenicity (HP) strain GZ1 was conducted using NimbleGen’s tilling microarray platform.
