Figure 3. The N‐terminus of Tde1 is sufficient for interaction with Tap1 and secretion.

- Co‐immunoprecipitation (Co‐IP) in Agrobacterium tumefaciens. A. tumefaciens C58 ∆tde1 harboring pTrc200 vector or its derivatives expressing HA‐tagged Tde1 variants. Anti‐HA resin was used to co‐precipitate the Tde1 variants and Tap1.
- Secretion assay for HA‐tagged Tde1 variants. Western blot for the cellular and extracellular fractions of A. tumefaciens C58 ∆tdei and ∆tdei∆tssK expressing the HA‐tagged Tde1 variants. Hcp secretion was detected as a positive control for active T6SS secretion. Representative western blot results of three biological repeats were shown with antibody against HA, Hcp, or EF‐Tu where EF‐Tu serves as a loading and nonsecreted protein control. Protein markers are indicated in kDa.
