 === How discovered? ===
-XopC was discovered in //X. campestris// pv. //vesicatoria// (//Xcv//) in a cDNA-AFLP screen (Noël //et al//., 2001). XopC was also identified in a genetic screen, using a Tn//5//-based transposon construct harboring the coding sequence for the HR-inducing domain of AvrBs2, but devoid of the effectors' T3SS signal, that was randomly inserted into the genome of //Xcv //strain 85-10. The XopC::AvrBs2 fusion protein triggered a //Bs2//-dependent hypersensitive response (HR) in pepper leaves (Roden //et al//., 2004).

 The //xopC// gene was shown to be expressed in a //hrpG//- and //hrpX//-dependent manner. No PIP box was identified in the promoter region (Noël //et al//., 2001; Noël //et al//., 2003).
-qRT-PCR revealed that transcript levels of 15 out of 18 tested non-TAL effector genes (as well as the regulatory genes //hrpG// and //hrpX//), including //xopC//, were significantly reduced in the //Xanthomonas oryzae// pv. //oryzae// Δ//xrvC// mutant compared with those in the wild-type strain PXO99<sup>A</sup>  (Liu //et al.//, 2016).

Transient expression of XopC exclusively induced plant reactions in lines of the genus //Solanum//  (Adlung //et al//., 2006). //Xcv//  85-10 strain deleted for //xopC//  induced weaker reactions than the wild type in //S. americanum//, which could be complemented by ectopic expression of //xopC//.

-  * The absence of //xopC//  in the genome of //Xcv//  led to an accelerated AvrBs1-induced HR in resistant pepper plants, if the plants were additionally stressed by exogenous application of salicylic acid (SA).

These data suggest, that the induction of the AvrBs1-dependent HR in resistant pepper plants is SA-stress dependently delayed by XopC, which is reliant on a HAD-like hydrolase domain in XopC. This delay is mediated by the XopC plant interaction partner OAS-TL. Furthermore, expression analysis showed an increased accumulation of β-1,3-Glucanase transcript in //Xcv//-infected, resistant pepper plants by the presence of //xopC//. These findings indicated that XopC influences different mechnisms of the plant metabolism (Herzfeld, 2013).

 === Interaction partners ===
-Yeast-2-hybrid studies revealed a XopC interactor, which also interacted with XopC in planta. The interactor localises to the plant cell cytoplasm and carries typical features of plant cytosolic O-acetylserine (thiol)lyases (OAS-TL). It shows OAS-TL activity in vivo and in vitro. The latter one is enhanced by adding XopC (Herzfeld, 2013).
