3MB-PP1 and 1NM-PP1 rescue the interactions of Ptoas(T199A)
with bacterial effectors, but not the interaction of Ptoas with
AvrPto(I96T). A and B, interactions of Pto forms with
AvrPto (A) or AvrPtoB1-387 (B) measured in a
yeast two-hybrid system in the presence of 3MB-PP1 (10 μm),
1NM-PP1 (10 μm), or DMSO using the β-galactosidase assay.
β-Galactosidase activity is reported as percentage of that observed for
the interaction of Pto with AvrPto or AvrPtoB1-387 in the presence
of DMSO. Data are the means of three independent yeast transformants ±
S.E. The assay was repeated three times with similar results. C,
kinase activity assay of Pto forms. Autophosphorylation and phosphorylation of
GST-Pti1(K96N) by the indicated GST-Pto forms was tested in vitro,
and proteins were fractionated by 10% SDS-PAGE. The gel was stained by
Coomassie Blue (bottom panel) and exposed to autoradiography (top
panel). D, expression of bait proteins in yeast in the presence
or absence of 10 μm 3MB-PP1. Wild-type and mutant forms of Pto
were expressed in yeast as LexA fusions and visualized in immunoblots using
anti-LexA antibodies. E, interactions of Pto and Ptoas
with AvrPto or AvrPto(I96T) in the presence of 3MB-PP1 (10 μm),
1NM-PP1 (10 μm), or DMSO. Data are the means of three
independent yeast transformants ± S.E. The assay was repeated three
times with similar results.
