 XopE1 fused to the AvrBs3 reporter was shown to be secreted into culture supernatants in a //hrcV-//dependent manner (Thieme //et al//., 2007).

 Transcriptome analysis (RNA-seq) and qRT-PCR revealed that //avrXacE1// (//xopE1//) gene expression is downregulated in a //X. citri// pv. //citri// Δ//phoP// mutant, indicating that PhoP is a positive regulator of //xopE1// expression (Wei et al., 2019). Transcriptome analysis (RNA-seq) and qRT-PCR revealed that //avrXacE1// (//xopE1//) gene expression is downregulated in a //X. citri// pv. //citri// Δ//phoP// mutant, indicating that PhoP is a positive regulator of //xopE1// expression (Wei et al., 2019).

-//Agrobacterium//-mediated expression of XopE1 triggers a fast cell-death reaction in non host //Nicotiana// plants revealing that XopE1 is recognized by //Nicotiana//. Its membrane localization delays the detection by the plant surveillance system and contributes to inactivate plant immune responses (Thieme //et al//., 2007). XopE1 was associated to different grades of cytotoxicity and intermediate growth inhibition on yeast and caused phenotypes ranging from chlorosis to cell death when transiently expressed via //Agrobacterium// in either host or non-host plants (Salomon //et al//., 2011; Adlung //et al//., 2016). XopE1 mutants grew to equivalent titers as wild-type //X. euvesicatoria// in tomato leaves indicating that is not required for bacterial multiplication in planta. However, XopE1 was found to be required to suppress chlorosis and tissue collapse at very late stages of //Xanthomonas// infection. XopE1 together with XopE2 and XopO may function redundantly to inhibit //X//. //euvesicatoria//-induced chlorosis in tomato leaves (Dubrow //et al//., 2018).+//Agrobacterium//-mediated expression of XopE1 triggers a fast cell-death reaction in non host //Nicotiana// plants revealing that XopE1 is recognized by //Nicotiana//.

 XopE1 fused to GFP reporter in a binary vector under control of the Cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter and transiently expressed in //Nicotiana benthamiana// leaves, using //Agrobacterium-//mediated gene transfer, allowed to observe XopE1::GFP to be confined to the periphery of the cells and being not detectable in the nucleus or in the cytoplasm. XopE1 fused to GFP reporter in a binary vector under control of the Cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter and transiently expressed in //Nicotiana benthamiana// leaves, using //Agrobacterium-//mediated gene transfer, allowed to observe XopE1::GFP to be confined to the periphery of the cells and being not detectable in the nucleus or in the cytoplasm.

 XopE1 belongs to the HopX effector family, members of which belong to the transglutaminase superfamily (Nimchuk //et al//., 2007). XopE1 belongs to the HopX effector family, members of which belong to the transglutaminase superfamily (Nimchuk //et al//., 2007).

 XopE1 was found to physically interact with tomato 14-3-3s (TFT) (Dubrow //et al.//, 2018). In addition, XopE1 was predicted to interact with VirK, which is secreted by the T2SS and for which a possible role in the modulation of plant immune response during the infection process was suggested (Assis //et al//., 2017). XopE1 was found to physically interact with tomato 14-3-3s (TFT) (Dubrow //et al.//, 2018).
