摘要: Hpalxoo (harpin) is a type III secreted protein of the rice blight bacterial pathogen Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae that elicits a hypersensitive response (HR) in nonhost tobacco. Hpal_(Xoo) is predicted to contain two potential coiled-coil (CC) regions, one at the N-terminus with a high probability of formation, and one at the C-terminus with a lower probability of formation. We constructed several CC-equivalent peptides by a chemo-synthetic method, and investigated the structure-function of the predicted Hpal_(Xoo) CC regions, using biophysical and biochemical approaches. Both peptides elicited an HR in tobacco. Mutant versions of the N- and C-terminal peptides that were predicted to disrupt or favor CC formation were generated. The resulting altered HR activity and oligomerization indicated that the N-terminal CC region is essential for eliciting HR, but the C-terminus is not. The results also indicate that a 14-residue fragment (LDQLLCQLISALLQ) within the N-terminal CC region is a minimal and independent functional element for HR-induction in tobacco leaves. We propose that HR-induction requires a specific oligomerization of the CC regions of Hpalxoo-
