Functional Studies of the Bacterial Avirulence Protein AvrPto by Mutational Analysis

Pseudomonas syringae pathovars expressing avrPto are avirulent on plants expressing the resistance gene Pto. Over 85 mutants of avrPto were generated with multiple strategies, and several assays were used to characterize AvrPto function. Only a core of 95 amino acids of the 164 residues was sufficie...
