-Synonyms: XopAE was also referred to as HpaF (Kim //et al.//, 2003; Sugio //et al.//, 2005). In //Xcv// strain 85-10, the gene is bipartite and the two parts were first coined //hpaF// and //hpaG// (Noël //et al.//, 2002). Be careful: //hpaG// was also used in other Xanthomonas to designate the homolog of //hpa1// (//X. campestris//, //X. oryzae//) and //xopA// (//Xcv// 85-10) (Kim //et al.//, 2003).\\

-D structure: Most XopAE pocesses a N-terminal leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain and a C-terminal XL box motif with an E3 ubiquitin ligase fold, based on homology modelling (Popov //et al//., 2018). Predicted fold of XopAE C terminus is similar to that of XopL (Popov //et al//., 2018).

 ===== The locus =====
-The //xopAE// locus in the majority of the //Xanthomonas// strains encodes a single ORF (//xopAE//). Yet, in //X. euvesicatoria// strain 85-10, a frame-shift splits it into two ORFs (//hpaF// and //xopAE<sub>85-10</sub> //) that are transcribed in an operon as a bicistronic mRNA (Noël //et al//., 2002; Popov //et al//., 2018).

 ===== Biological function =====
 === How discovered? ===
-XopAE was discovered by studying //hrpG//-regulated genes within the //hrp// gene cluster of //X. euvesicatoria// strain 85-10 (Noël //et al//., 2002).
+XopAE was discovered by studying //hrpG//-regulated genes within the //hrp// gene cluster of //X. euvesicatoria// pv. //euvesicatoria// (//Xee//) strain 85-10 (Noël //et al.//, 2002).
 === (Experimental) evidence for being a T3E ===
-XopAE<sub>85-10</sub> was fused to the AvrBs2 reporter and shown to translocate into plant cells in an //hrpF//-dependent manner (Popov //et al//., 2018).
+XopAE<sub>//Xee//85-10</sub> was fused to the AvrBs2 reporter and shown to translocate into plant cells in an //hrpF//-dependent manner (Popov //et al.//, 2018).
 === Regulation ===
-In //X. euvesicatoria// strain 85-10, //xopAE// <sub>85-10</sub> transcription is driven by the promoter of the immediately upstream //hpaF// gene and regulated by the HrpX and HrpG master transcriptional regulators of the //Xanthomonas// T3SS (Popov //et al//., 2016). An imperfect PIP box (TTCGC-N<sub>16</sub>-TTCGC) is located 82 bp upstream of the predicted translation start codon of //hpaF// (Noël //et al//., 2002).

 === Phenotypes ===
-XopAE<sub>85-10</sub> is a suppressor of PTI that was shown to inhibit flg22-mediated signaling in //Arabidopsis// and tomato protoplasts, downstream or in parallel to the activation of the MPK3 and MPK6 MAP kinases. //Pseudomonas syringae//-mediated delivery of XopAE<sub>85-10</sub> in plants inhibits PTI-associated callose deposition at the cell wall and enhances disease symptoms in tomato (Popov //et al//., 2016).

Later, XopAE<sub>//Xpm// </sub> was confirmed to suppress basal defenses such as callose deposition and the production of reactive oxygen species (Gomez De la Cruz //et al.//, 2025).
 === Localization ===
-XopAE<sub>85-10</sub>-YFP fusion protein localizes to the cytoplasm and nucleus of //Nicotiana benthamiana// leaf epidermal cells (Popov //et al//., 2016).

Upon interaction, XopAE//<sub>Xpm</sub> // hijacks Mep23-1 to the scattered points throughout the cell border and they also interact in nucleus (Gomez De la Cruz //et al.//, 2025).
