-bla bla+====== The Type III Effector XopJ7 from //Xanthomonas// ======

 +Author: Anna Passelergue\\

 + 
 +Class: XopJ\\ 
 +Family: XopJ7\\ 
 +Prototype: E4A48_06420 (//Xanthomonas// //cerealis// pv. //cerealis//, strain 01)\\ 
 +GenBank ID: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/QDI05802.1|QDI05802.1]] (493 aa)\\ 
 +RefSeq ID: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/WP_185910725.1|WP_185910725.1]] (389 aa). Attention: The RefSeq sequence is too short because 104 codons encoding the N-terminal region, including the type III secretion signal, are missing.\\ 
 +3D structure: Unknown 
 + 
 +===== Biological function ===== 
 + 
 +=== How discovered? === 
 + 
 +XopJ7 was discovered as an ORF that is encoded downstream of a PIP box and a properly spaced ‐10 promoter motif (TTCGB‐N<sub>15</sub> ‐TTCGB‐N<sub>30–32</sub> ‐YANNNT) (Passelergue, 2025). Additional evidence came from the presence of conserved myristoylation and palmitoylation signals (Nimchuk //et al.//, 2000; Thieme //et al.//, 2007), which were in frame with the ORF. Based on this observation, the translation initiation codon is likely 104 codons upstream of the annotated codon for the locus E4A48_RS06415. 
 + 
 +=== (Experimental) evidence for being a T3E === 
 + 
 +XopJ7 was shown to have a functional type III secretion signal using a reporter fusion with AvrBs1 (Zhao //et al.//, 2013). 
 + 
 +=== Regulation === 
 + 
 +The presence of a PIP box and a properly spaced ‐10 promoter motif (TTCGB‐N<sub>15</sub> ‐TTCGB‐N<sub>30–32</sub> ‐YANNNT) suggests that the //xopJ7// gene is under control of HrpG and HrpX (Wengelnik & Bonas, 1996; Wengelnik //et al.//, 1996; Koebnik //et al.//, 2006). 
 + 
 +=== Phenotypes === 
 + 
 +Unknown. 
 + 
 +=== Localization === 
 + 
 +The presence of conserved myristoylation and palmitoylation signals at the N terminus suggests that the protein is localized to the plasma membrane in the plant host cell (Nimchuk //et al.//, 2000; Thieme //et al.//, 2007). 
 +=== Enzymatic function === 
 + 
 +Unknown. 
 + 
 +=== Interaction partners === 
 + 
 +Unknown. 
 + 
 +===== Conservation ===== 
 + 
 +=== In xanthomonads === 
 + 
 +Yes (//e.g.//, //X. euvesicatoria//, //X. campestris//, //X. hortorum//). 
 +
 +== In other plant pathogens/symbionts === 
 + 
 +Yes (e.g., //Acidovorax/////Paracidovorax// ssp., //Burkholderia/////Paraburkholderia// ssp; remote homologs in //Ralstonia// ssp.].
