The number of AvrBs3 repeats affects T0-dependency. (A and B) GUS activities induced by AvrBs3 and derivatives 3 days after Agrobacterium-mediated delivery of effector- and reporter-constructs into leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana. Asterisks indicate a significant difference in activity of the same TALE-derivative tested with EBE-T0 (Student's t-test; *P-value ≤ 0.05; **P-value ≤ 0.01; ***P-value ≤ 0.001). (C) Comparison of relative GUS activities induced by AvrBs3-derivatives dependent on the base at position N0. Constructs and corresponding EBEs are schematically presented in the right panel. AvrBs3 derivatives differ in number of repeats and the repeat 1 RVD (black oval; RVD = XX). Chosen RVD1: HD or NS. The activity of AvrBs3-derivatives for EBE(T0) was set to 100%. Relative GUS values are based on the mean of three independent experiments. Color scale: GUS activities smaller than 100%.
