The U.S. Government may have certain rights in this invention. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to isolated DNA molecules corresponding to the open reading frames in the conserved effector loci and exchangeable effector loci of the Pseudomonas syringae, the isolated proteins encoded thereby, and their various uses. Background of the Invention The plant pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae is noted for its diverse and host-specific interactions with plants (Hirano and Upper, 1990). A specific strain may be assigned to one of at least 40 pathovars based on its host range among different plant species and then further assigned to a race based on differential interactions among cultivars of the host. In host plants the bacteria typically grow to high population levels in leaf intercellular spaces and then produce necrotic lesions. In nonhost plants or in host plants with race-specific resistance, the bacteria elicit the hypersensitive response (HR), a rapid, defense-associated programmed death of plant cells in contact with the pathogen (Alfano and CoUmer, 1997). The ability to produce either of these reactions in plants appears to be directed by hrp (HR and pathogenicity) and hrc (HR and conserved) genes that encode a type III protein secretion pathway and by avr (avirulence) and hop (Hrp-dependent outer protein) genes that encode effector proteins injected into plant cells by the pathway (Alfano and Collmer, 1997). These effectors may also betray the parasite to the HR-triggering R-gene surveillance system of potential hosts (hence the avr designation), and plant breeding for resistance based on such gene-for-gene (αvr-R) interactions may produce complex combinations of races and differential cultivars (Keen, 1990). hrp/hrc genes are probably universal among necrosis-causing gram-negative plant pathogens, and they have been sequenced in P. syringae pv. syringae (Psy) 61, Erwinia amylovora Ea321, Xanihomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria (Xcv) 85-10, and Ralstonia solanacearum GMI1000 (Alfano and CoUmer, 1997). Based on their distinct gene arrangements and regulatory components, the hrp/hrc gene clusters of these four bacteria can be divided into two groups: I (Pseudomonas and Erwinia) and II (Xanthomonas and Ralstonia). The discrepancy between the distribution of these groups and the phylogeny of the bacteria provides some evidence that hrp/hrc gene clusters have been horizontally acquired and, therefore, may represent pathogenicity islands (Pais) (Alfano and CoUmer, 1997). Pais have been defined as gene clusters that (i) include many virulence genes, (ii) are selectively present in pathogenic strains, (iii) have different G+C content compared to host bacteria DNA, (iv) occupy large chromosomal regions, (v) are often flanked by direct repeats, (vi) are bordered by tRNA genes and/or cryptic mobile genetic elements, and (vii) are unstable (Hacker et al., 1997). Some Pais have inserted into different genomic locations in the same species (Wieler et al., 1997). Others reveal a mosaic structure indicative of multiple horizontal acquisitions (Hensel et al., 1999). Genes encoding type III secretion systems are present in Pais in animal pathogenic Salmonella spp. and Pseudomonas aeruginosa and on large plasmids in Yersinia and Shigella spp. Genes encoding effectors secreted by the pathway in these organisms are commonly linked to the pathway genes (Hueck, 1998), although a noteworthy exception is sopE, which is carried by a temperate phage without apparent linkage to SPI1 in certain isolates of S. typhimurium (Mirold et al., 1999). Three avr/hop genes have already been shown to be linked to the hrp/hrc cluster in P. syringae: avrE and several other Hrp-regulated transcriptional units are linked to the hrpR border of the hrp cluster in P. syringae pv tomato (Pto) DC3000 (Lorang and Keen, 1995); avrPphE is adjacent to hrpY (hrpK) in Pseudomonas phaseolicola (Pph) 1302A (Mansfield et al., 1994); and hopPsyA (hrmA) is adjacent to hrpK in Psy 61 (Heu and Hutcheson, 1993). Other Pseudomonas avr genes are located elsewhere in the genome or on plasmids (Leach and White, 1996), including a plasmid-borne group of avr genes described as a Pai in Pph 1449B (Jackson et al., 1999). Because Avr, Hop, Hrp, and Hrc proteins represent promising therapeutic treatments in both plants and animals, it would be desirable to identify other proteins encoded by the Pai's in pathogenic bacteria and identify uses for those proteins. The present invention overcomes these deficiencies in the art. Summary of the Invention One aspect of the present invention relates to isolated nucleic acid molecules (i) encoding proteins or polypeptides of Pseudomonas Conserved Effector Loci ("CEL") and Exchangeable Effector Loci ("EEL") genomic regions, (ii) nucleic acid molecules which hybridize thereto under stringent conditions, or (iii) nucleic acid molecules that include a nucleotide sequence which is complementary to the nucleic acid molecules of (i) and (ii). Expression vectors, host cells, and transgenic plants which include the DNA molecules of the present invention are also disclosed. Methods of making such host cells and transgenic plant are disclosed. A further aspect of the present invention relates to isolated proteins or polypeptides encoded by the nucleic acid molecules of the present invention. Compositions which contain the proteins are also disclosed. Yet another aspect of the present invention relates to methods of imparting disease resistance to a plant. According to one approach, this method is carried out by transforming a plant cell with a heterologous DNA molecule of the present invention and regenerating a transgenic plant from the transformed plant cell, wherein the transgenic plant expresses the heterologous DNA molecule under conditions effective to impart disease resistance. According to another approach, this method is carried out by treating a plant with a protein or polypeptide of the present invention under conditions effective to impart disease resistance to the treated plant. A still further aspect of the present invention relates to a method of making a plant hypersusceptible to colonization by nonpathogenic bacteria. According to one approach, this method is carried out by transforming a plant cell with a heterologous DNA molecule of the present invention and regenerating a transgenic plant from the transformed plant cell, wherein the transgenic plant expresses the heterologous DNA molecule under conditions effective to render the transgenic plant hypersusceptible to colonization by nonpathogenic bacteria. According to an alternative approach, this method is carried out by treating a plant with a protein or polypeptide of the present invention under conditions effective to render the treated plant susceptible to colonization by nonpathogenic bacteria. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a method of causing eukaryotic cell death by introducing into a eukaryotic cell a cytotoxic Pseudomonas - protein, where the introducing is performed under conditions effective to cause cell death. A further aspect of the present invention relates to a method of treating a cancerous condition by introducing a cytotoxic Pseudomonas protein into cancer cells of a patient under conditions effective to cause death of cancer cells, thereby treating the cancerous condition. The benefits of the present invention result from three factors. First, there is substantial and growing evidence that phytopathogen effector proteins have evolved to elicit exquisite changes in eukaryote metabolism at extremely low levels, and at least some of these activities are potentially relevant to mammals and other organisms in addition to plants. For example, ORF5 in the Psy B728a EEL is similar to Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria AvrBsT, a phytopathogen protein that appears to have the same active site as its animal pathogen homolog YopJ, which inhibits mammalian MAPKK defense signaling (Orth et al., 2000). Second, the P. syringae CEL and EEL regions are enriched in effector protein genes, which makes these regions fertile targets for effector gene bioprospecting. Third, rapidly developing technologies for delivering genes and proteins into plant and animal cells improve the efficacy of protein-based therapies. Brief Description of the Drawings Figure 1 is a diagram illustrating the conserved arrangement of hrp/hrc genes within the Hrp Pais of Psy 61, Psy B728a, and Pto DC3000. Regions sequenced in B728a and DC3000 are indicated by lines beneath the strain 61 sequence. Known regulatory genes are shaded. Arrows indicate the direction of transcription, with small boxes denoting the presence of a Hrp box. The triangle denotes the 3.6-kb insert with phage genes in the B728a hrp/hrc region. Figures 2A-C show the EEL of Pto DC3000, Psy B728a, and Psy 61, the tgt-gwev4-tRNA Leu locus in P. aeruginosa (Pa), and EEL border sequences. Figure 2 A is a diagram of the EELs of three P. syringae strains shown aligned by their hrpK sequences and are compared with the tgt- we^-tRNA Leu locus in Pa PA01. Arrows indicate the direction of transcription, with small boxes denoting the presence of a Hrp box. Shaded regions are conserved, striped regions denote mobile genetic elements, and open boxes denote genes that are completely dissimilar from each other. Figure 2B is an alignment of the sequences of the DC3000 (DC) (SEQ. ID. No. 85), B728a (B7) (SEQ. JO. No. 86), and 61 (SEQ. ID. No. 87) EELs at the border with tRNA Leu , with conserved nucleotides shown in upper case. Figure 2C is an alignment of the sequences of the DC3000 (DC) (SEQ. ID. No. 88), B728a (B7) (SEQ. ID. No. 89), and 61 (SEQ. ID. No. 90) EELs at the border with hrpK, with conserved nucleotides shown in upper case. Figure 3 is a diagram illustrating the Hrp Pai CEL of P. syringae. The Pto DC3000 CEL is shown with the conesponding fragments of Psy B728a that were sequenced aligned below. The nucleotide identity of the sequenced fragments in coding regions ranged from 72% to 83%. Arrows indicate the direction of transcription, with small boxes denoting the presence of a Hrp box. Figures 4A-E illustrate the plant interaction phenotypes of Pto mutants carrying deletions of the EEL (CUCPB5110) and CEL (CUCPB5115). Figure 14A is a graph illustrating growth in tomato of DC3000 and CUCPB5110 (mean and SD). Figure 14B is a graph illustrating growth in tomato of DC3000, CUCPB5115, and CUCPB5115(ρCPP3016) (mean and SD). Figure 14C is an image showing HR collapse in tobacco leaf tissue 24 h after infiltration with 10 7 cfu/ml of DC3000 and CUCPB5115. Figure 14D is an image showing the absence of disease symptoms in tomato leaf 4 days after inoculation with 10 4 cfu/ml of CUCPB5115. Figure 14E is an image showing disease symptoms typical of wild-type in tomato leaf 4 days after inoculation with 10 4 cfu/ml of CUCPB5115(pCPP3016). Figure 5 is an image of the immunoblot analysis showing AvrPto secretion by Pto DC3000 derivatives with deletions affecting the three major regions of the Hrp Pai. Bacteria were grown in Hrp-inducing minimal medium at pH 5.5 and 22°C to an OD 6 oo of 0.35 and then separated into cell-bound (C) and supernatant (S) fractions by centrifugation. Proteins were then resolved by SDS-PAGE, blotted, and immunostained with antibodies against AvrPto and β-lactamase as described (Manceau and Harvais, 1997), except that supernatant fractions were concentrated 3- fold relative to cell-bound fractions before loading. Pto DC3000, CUCPB5115 (CEL deletion), CUCPB5114 (hrp/hrc deletion), and CUCPB5110 (EEL deletion) all carried pCPP2318, which expresses β-lactamase without a signal peptide as a cytoplasmic marker. Figures 6A-B illustrate, enlarged as compared to Figure 1, the organization of the shcA and hopPsyA operon in the EEL of the Hrp Pai of Psy 61. In Figure 6 A, the shcA and hopPsyA are depicted as white boxes. At the border of the Hrp Pai are the tRNA Leu and queA genes depicted as gray boxes. A 5' truncated hrpK gene is represented as a hatched box. The arrows indicate the predicted direction of transcription and the black box denotes the presence of a putative HrpL-dependent promoter upstream of shcA. Figure 6B illustrates schematically the construction of the deletion mutation in the shcA ORF marker-exchanged into Psy 61. Black bars depict regions that were amplified along with added restriction enzyme sites and each are aligned with the corresponding DNA region represented in Figure 6A. The striped box depicts the nptll cassette that lacks transcriptional and translational terminators used in making the functionally nonpolar shcA Psy 61 mutant. EcoPl, E; EcoRY, V; Xbal, X; andXhoI, Xh. Figure 7 is an image of an immunoblot showing that shcA encodes a protein product. pLN9 is a derivative of pFLAG-CTC in which the shcA ORF is cloned and fused to the FLAG epitope and translation is directed by a vector ribosome binding site (RBS). pLN26 contains an amplified product containing the shcA coding region and its native RBS site. Cultures of E. coli DH5α carrying either pFLAG-CTC (Control), pLN9, or pLN26 were grown to an OD 60 o of 0.8 and then 100 μl aliquots were taken, centrifuged, resuspended in SDS-PAGE buffer, and then subjected to SDS-PAGE and immunoblot analysis with anti-FLAG antibodies and secondary antibodies conjugated with alkaline phosphatase. Figure 8 is an image of an immunoblot showing that Psy 61 shcA mutant UNLN102 does not secrete HopPsyA and shcA provided in trans complements this defect. Psy 61 cultures were grown at 22°C in Ar 7-derepressing medium and separated into cell-bound (C) and supernatant fractions (S). The cell- bound fractions were concentrated 13.4-fold and the supernatant fractions were concentrated 100-fold relative to the initial culture volumes. The samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE and immunoblot analysis, and HopPsyA and β-lactamase (Bla) were detected with either anti-HopPsyA or anti- β-lactamase antibodies followed by secondary antibodies conjugated to alkaline phosphatase as described in the experimental procedures. The image of the immunoblot was captured using the Bio- Rad Gel Doc 2000 UN fluorescent gel documentation system with the accompanying Quantity 1 software. Figure 9 is an image of an immunoblot showing that shcA is required for the type III secretion of HopPsyA, but not secretion of HrpZ. P.βuorescens 55 cultures were grown in Arp-derepressing medium and separated into cell-bound (C) and supernatant (S) fractions. The cell-bound fractions were concentrated 13.4-fold and the supernatant fractions were concentrated 100-fold relative to the initial culture volumes. The samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE and immunoblot analysis, and HopPsyA and HrpZ were detected with either anti-HopPsyA or anti-HrpZ antibodies followed by secondary antibodies conjugated to alkaline phosphatase as described in experimental procedures. The image of the immunoblot was captured using the Bio- Rad Gel Doc 2000 UN fluorescent gel documentation system with the accompanying Quantity 1 software. Figure 10 is a series of four images of tobacco leaves showing that P. fluorescens 55 carrying a pHIRl 1 derivative with a functionally nonpolar shcA mutation is impaired in its ability to translocate HopPsyA into plant cells. P. fluorescens 55 cultures were grown overnight in King's B and suspended in 5 mM MES pH 5.6 to an OD 6 oo of 1.0, and infiltrated into tobacco leaf panels. Because the pHIRl 1 -induced HR is due to the translocation of HopPsyA inside plant cells, a reduced HR indicates that HopPsyA is not delivered well enough to induce a typical HR. The leaf panels were photographed with incident light 24 hours later. Figure 11 is an image of an immunoblot showing that ShcA binds to HopPsyA. Soluble protein samples from sonicated cultures (Sonicate) of Psy 61 shcA mutant UNLN102 carrying pLΝl (HopPsyA) or ρLΝ2 (ShcA-FLAG, HopPsyA) were mixed with anti-FLAG M2 affinity gel (Gel). The gel was washed (Wash) with TBS buffer, mixed with SDS-PAGE buffer, and subjected to SDS-PAGE and immunoblot analysis along with the sonicate and wash samples. HopPsyA and ShcA-FLAG were detected with anti-HopPsyA or anti-FLAG antibodies followed by secondary antibodies conjugated to alkaline phosphatase as described in experimental procedures. Figure 12 is a diagram illustrating the spindle checkpoint in S. cerevisiae. The spindle checkpoint is activated by a signal emitted from the kinetochores when there are abnormalities with the microtubules. This signal is somehow received by the spindle checkpoint components, which respond in a variety of ways. Mad2 is thought to bind to Cdc20 at the APC inhibiting its ubiquitin ligase activity. In the absence of Mad2 (and presumably damage to the spindle), the APC is active and it marks Pdsl and other inhibitors of anaphase for degradation via the ubiquitin proteolysis pathway; anaphase ensues. Figures 13A-B illustrate the effects of transgenically expressed HopPsyA on Nicotiana tabacum cv. Xanthi, Nicotiana benthamiana, and Arabidopsis thaliana. Figure 13A shows N. tabacum cv. Xanthi and N. benthamiana leaves infiltrated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens GV3101 with or without pTA!002::hopPsyA. Figure 13B illustrates Arabidopsis thaliana Col-1 infiltrated with tumefaciens +/- pTA1002 :hopPsyA. For all plants shown in Figures 13A-B, 48 h after Agrobacterium infiltration, plants were sprayed with the glucocorticoid dexamethasone (DEX). Images were collected 24 h after DEX treatment. A.t. = Agrobacterium tumefaciens; pA = pTA7002: -.hopPsyA. Figure 14 is an image of an SDS-PAGE which shows the distribution of HopPsyA and β-lactamase in cultures of Psy 61 (pCPP2318) or a hrp mutant, Psy 61-2089 (pCPP2318). Bacterial cultures were grown at 22°C in /zrp-depressing medium and separated into cell-bound (C) and supernatant fractions (S). The cell- bound fractions were concentrated 13.4 fold, and the supernatant fractions were concentrated 100 fold relative to initial culture volumes. The samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE and immunoblot analysis and HopPsyA and β-lactamase were detected with either anti- HopPsyA or anti-β-lactamase antibodies followed by secondary antibodies conjugated to alkaline phosphatase. Pss wild-type = Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae 61 (pCPP2318); Pss hrcC = Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae 61-2089 (pCPP2318). Figure 15 is a graph illustrating the ability of wild-type Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae and a hopPsyA mutant to multiply in bean leaves. Values represent the average plate counts from crushed plant leaves of two independent inoculations. Wild-type (•), Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae 61; hopPsyA mutant (O), Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae 61-2070. Figures 16A-B illustrate the interaction of HopPsyA and Mad2 in a yeast two-hybrid assay. Figure 16A illustrates cultures of yeast EGY48 strains containing either pLN24 (pEG202:: 'hopPsyA) and pJG4-5 (fish-vector), pLN24 and pLNl 16 (pJG4-5 mad2), or pEG202 (bait vector) and pLNl 16 on medium containing 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-D-galactopyranoside (Xgal) to check for β- galactosidase activity with either glucose (Glc) or galactose (Gal), β-galactosidase activity was indicated only in the presence of both HopPsyA and Mad2. Figure 16B illustrates cultures of the same yeast strains on minimal medium leucine dropout plates with either Glc or Gal sugars. 1 = EGY48 (pLN24, pJG4-5); 2 = EGY48 (pLN24, pLNl 16); 3 = EGY48 (pEG202, pLNl 16).

ID. No. 1, however these appear to be present in intergenic regions. The CEL of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 contains a number of open reading frames (ORFs). Two of the products encoded by the CEL are HrpW and AvrE, both of which are known. An additional 10 products are produced by ORFl-10, respectively, as shown in Figure 3.

Suitable fragments can be produced by several means. Subclones of the gene encoding a known protein can be produced using conventional molecular genetic manipulation for subclonmg gene fragments, such as described by Sambrook et al., 1989, and Ausubel et al., 1994. The subclones then are expressed in vitro or in vivo in bacterial cells to yield a smaller protein or polypeptide that can be tested for activity, e.g., as a product required for pathogen virulence. In another approach, based on knowledge of the primary structure of the protein, fragments of the protein-coding gene may be synthesized using the PCR technique together with specific sets of primers chosen to represent particular portions of the protein (Erlich et al., 1991). These can then be cloned into an appropriate vector for expression of a truncated protein or polypeptide from bacterial cells as described above. As an alternative, fragments of a protein can be produced by digestion of a full-length protein with proteolytic enzymes like chymotrypsin or Staphylococcus proteinase A, or trypsin. Different proteolytic enzymes are likely to cleave different proteins at different sites based on the amino acid sequence of the particular protein. Some of the fragments that result from proteolysis may be active virulence proteins or polypeptides. Chemical synthesis can also be used to make suitable fragments. Such a synthesis is carried out using known amino acid sequences for the polyppetide being produced. Alternatively, subjecting a full length protein to high temperatures and pressures will produce fragments. These fragments can then be separated by conventional procedures (e.g., chromatography, SDS-PAGE). Variants may also (or alternatively) be modified by, for example, the deletion or addition of amino acids that have minimal influence on the properties, secondary structure and hydropathic nature of the polypeptide. For example, a polypeptide may be conjugated to a signal (or leader) sequence at the N-terminal end of the protein which co-translationally or post-translationally directs transfer of the protein. The polypeptide may also be conjugated to a linker or other sequence for ease of synthesis, purification, or identification of the polypeptide. The proteins or polypeptides used in accordance with the present invention are preferably produced in purified form (preferably at least about 80%, more preferably 90%, pure) by conventional techniques. Typically, the protein or polypeptide of the present invention is secreted into the growth medium of recombinant host cells (discussed infra). Alternatively, the protein or polypeptide of the present invention is produced but not secreted into growth medium. In such cases, to isolate the protein, the host cell (e.g., E. coli) carrying a recombinant plasmid is propagated, lysed by sonication, heat, or chemical treatment, and the homogenate is centrifuged to remove bacterial debris. The supernatant is then subjected to sequential ammonium sulfate precipitation. The fraction containing the protein or polypeptide of interest is subjected to gel filtration in an appropriately sized dextran or polyacrylamide column to separate the proteins. If necessary, the protein fraction may be further purified by HPLC. DNA molecules encoding other EEL and CEL protein or polypeptides can be identified using a PCR-based methodology for cloning portions of the pathogenicity islands of a bacterium. Basically, the PCR-based strategy involves the use of conserved sequences from the hrpK and tRNA leu genes (or other conserved border sequences) as primers for cloning EEL intervening regions of the pathogenicity island. As shown in Figures 2B-C, the hrpK and tRNA leu genes are highly conserved among diverse Pseudomonas syringae variants. Depending upon the size of EEL, additional primers can be prepared from the originally obtained cDNA sequence, allowing for recovery of clones and walking through the EEL in a step-wise fashion. If full-length coding sequences are not obtained from the PCR steps, contigs can be assembled to prepare full-length coding sequences using suitable restriction enzymes. Similar PCR-based procedures can be used for obtaining clones that encode open reading frames in the CEL. As shown in Figure 3, the CEL of diverse Pseudomonas syringae pathovars contain numerous conserved domains. Moreover, known sequences of the hrp/hrc domain, hrpW, AvrE, or gstA can be used to prepare primers. Using the above-described PCR-based methods, a number of DNA sequences were utilized as the source for primers. One such DNA molecule is isolated from the tRNA leu gene of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000, which has a nucleotide sequence (SEQ. ID.

An example of suitable stringency conditions is when hybridization is carried out at a temperature of about 37°C using a hybridization medium that includes 0.9M sodium citrate ("SSC") buffer, followed by washing with 0.2x SSC buffer at 37°C. Higher stringency can readily be attained by increasing the temperature for either hybridization or washing conditions or increasing the sodium concentration of the hybridization or wash medium. Nonspecific binding may also be controlled using any one of a number of known techniques such as, for example, blocking the membrane with protein-containing solutions, addition of heterologous RNA, DNA, and SDS to the hybridization buffer, and treatment with RNase. Wash conditions are typically performed at or below stringency. Exemplary high stringency conditions include carrying out hybridization at a temperature of about 42°C to about 65°C for up to about 20 hours in a hybridization medium containing 1M NaCl, 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, 10 mM EDTA, 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 0.2% ficoll, 0.2% polyvinylpyrrolidone, 0.2% bovine serum albumin, and 50 μg/ml E. coli DNA, followed by washing carried out at between about 42°C to about 65°C in a 0.2x SSC buffer. Also encompassed by the present invention are nucleic acid molecules which contain conserved substitutions as compared to the above identified DNA molecules and, thus, encode the same protein or polypeptides identified above. Further, complementary sequences are also encompassed by the present invention. The nucleic acid of the present invention can be either DNA or RNA, which can readily be prepared using the above identified DNA molecules of the present invention. The delivery of effector proteins or polypeptides can be achieved in several ways, depending upon the host being treated and the materials being used: (1) as a stable or plasmid-encoded transgene; (2) transiently expressed via Agrobacterium or viral vectors; (3) delivered by the type III secretion systems of disarmed pathogens or recombinant nonpathogenic bacteria which express a functional, heterologous type III secretion system; or (4) delivered via topical application followed by TAT protein transduction domain-mediated spontaneous uptake into cells. Each of these is discussed infra. The DNA molecule encoding the protein or polypeptide can be incorporated in cells using conventional recombinant DNA technology. Generally, this involves inserting the DNA molecule into an expression system to which the DNA molecule is heterologous (i.e. not normally present). The heterologous DNA molecule is inserted into the expression system or vector in proper sense orientation and correct reading frame. The vector contains the necessary elements for the transcription and translation of the inserted protein-coding sequences. U.S. Patent No. 4,237,224 to Cohen and Boyer describes the production of expression systems in the form of recombinant plasmids using restriction enzyme cleavage and ligation with DNA ligase. These recombinant plasmids are then introduced by means of transformation and replicated in unicellular cultures including prokaryotic organisms and eukaryotic cells grown in tissue culture. Recombinant genes may also be introduced into viruses, such as vaccina virus. Recombinant viruses can be generated by transfection of plasmids into cells infected with virus. Suitable vectors include, but are not limited to, the following viral vectors such as lambda vector system gtl 1, gt WES.tB, Charon 4, and plasmid vectors such as pBR322, pBR325, pACYC177, pACYC1084, pUC8, pUC9, pUC18, pUC19, pLG339, pR290, pKC37, pKClOl, SN 40, pBluescript II SK +/- or KS +/- (see "Stratagene Cloning Systems" Catalog (1993) from Stratagene, La Jolla, Calif, which is hereby incorporated by reference), pQE, pIH821, pGEX, pET series (see Studier et al., 1990). Recombinant molecules can be introduced into cells via transformation, particularly transduction, conjugation, mobilization, or electroporation. The DΝA sequences are cloned into the vector using standard cloning procedures in the art, as described by Sambrook et al., 1989. A variety of host- vector systems may be utilized to express the protein- encoding sequence(s). Primarily, the vector system must be compatible with the host cell used. Host- vector systems include, but are not limited to, the following: bacteria ' transformed with bacteriophage DΝA, plasmid DΝA, or cosmid DΝA; microorganisms such as yeast containing yeast vectors; mammalian cell systems infected with virus (e.g., vaccinia virus, adenovirus, etc.); insect cell systems infected with virus (e.g., baculovirus); and plant cells infected by bacteria. The expression elements of these vectors vary in their strength and specificities. Depending upon the host- vector system utilized, any one of a number of suitable transcription and translation elements can be used. Different genetic signals and processing events control many levels of gene expression (e.g., DΝA transcription and messenger RΝA (mRΝA) translation). Transcription of DΝA is dependent upon the presence of a promoter which is a DΝA sequence that directs the binding of RΝA polymerase and thereby promotes mRΝA synthesis. The DΝA sequences of eukaryotic promoters differ from those of prokaryotic promoters. Eukaryotic promoters and accompanying genetic signals may not be recognized in or may not function in a prokaryotic system and, further, prokaryotic promoters are not recognized and do not function in eukaryotic cells. Similarly, translation of mRΝA in prokaryotes depends upon the presence of the proper prokaryotic signals which differ from those of eukaryotes. Efficient translation of mRΝA in prokaryotes requires a ribosome binding site called the Shine-Dalgarno ("SD") sequence on the mRNA. This sequence is a short nucleotide sequence of mRNA that is located before the start codon, usually AUG, which encodes the amino-terminal methionine of the protein. The SD sequences are complementary to the 3'-end of the 16S rRNA (ribosomal RNA) and probably promote binding of mRNA to ribosomes by duplexing with the rRNA to allow correct positioning of the ribosome. For a review on maximizing gene expression, see Roberts and Lauer, 1979. Promoters vary in their "strength" (i.e., their ability to promote transcription). For the purposes of expressing a cloned gene, it is desirable to use strong promoters in order to obtain a high level of transcription and, hence, expression of the gene. Depending upon the host cell system utilized, any one of a number of suitable promoters may be used. For instance, when cloning in E. coli, its bacteriophages, or plasmids, promoters such as the T7 phage promoter, lac promoter, trp promoter, recA promoter, ribosomal RNA promoter, the P R and P L promoters of coliphage lambda and others, including but not limited, to ZαcUV5, ompF, bla, Ipp, and the like, may be used to direct high levels of transcription of adjacent DΝA segments. Additionally, a hybrid trp-lac\JV5 (tac) promoter or other E. coli promoters produced by recombinant DΝA or other synthetic DΝA techniques may be used to provide for transcription of the inserted gene. Bacterial host cell strains and expression vectors may be chosen which inhibit the action of the promoter unless specifically induced. In certain operations, the addition of specific inducers is necessary for efficient transcription of the inserted DΝA. For example, the lac operon is induced by the addition of lactose or IPTG (isopropylthio-beta-D-galactoside). A variety of other operons, such as trp, pro, etc., are under different controls. Specific initiation signals are also required for efficient gene transcription and translation in prokaryotic cells. These transcription and translation initiation signals may vary in "strength" as measured by the quantity of gene specific messenger RΝA and protein synthesized, respectively. The DΝA expression vector, which contains a promoter, may also contain any combination of various "strong" transcription and/or translation initiation signals. For instance, efficient translation in E. coli requires an SD sequence about 7-9 bases 5' to the initiation codon ("ATG") to provide a ribosome binding site. Thus, any SD-ATG combination that can be utilized by host cell ribosomes may be employed. Such combinations include but are not limited to the SD-ATG combination from the cro gene or the N gene of coliphage lambda, or from the E. coli tryptophan Ε, D, C, B or A genes. Additionally, any SD- ATG combination produced by recombinant DNA or other techniques involving incorporation of synthetic nucleotides may be used. Once the isolated DNA molecule encoding the polypeptide or protein has been cloned into an expression system, it is ready to be incorporated into a host cell. Such incorporation can be carried out by the various forms of transformation noted above, depending upon the vector/host cell system. Suitable host cells include, but are not limited to, bacteria, virus, yeast, mammalian cells, insect, plant, and the like. Because it is desirable for recombinant host cells to secrete the encoded protein or polypeptide, it is preferable that the host cell also possess a functional type πi secretion system. The type III secretion system can be heterologous to host cell (Ham et al., 1998) or the host cell can naturally possess a type III secretion system. Host cells which naturally contain a type III secretion system include many pathogenic Gram-negative bacterium, such as numerous Erwinia species, Pseudomonas species, Xanthomonas species, etc. Other type III secretion systems are known and still others are continually being identified. Pathogenic bacteria that can be utilized to deliver effector proteins or polypeptides are preferably disarmed according to known techniques, i.e., as described above. Alternatively, isolation of the effector protein or polypeptide from the host cell or growth medium can be carried out as described above. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a transgenic plant which express a protein or polypeptide of the present invention and methods of making the same. In order to express the DNA molecule in isolated plant cells or tissue or whole plants, a plant expressible promoter is needed. Any plant-expressible promoter can be utilized regardless of its origin, i.e., viral, bacterial, plant, etc. Without limitation, two suitable promoters include the nopaline synthase promoter (Fraley et al., 1983) and the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter (O'Dell et al., 1985). Both of these promoters yield constitutive expression of coding sequences under their regulatory control. While constitutive expression is generally suitable for expression of the DNA molecule, it should be apparent to those of skill in the art that temporally or tissue regulated expression may also be desirable, in which case any regulated promoter can be selected to achieve the desired expression. Typically, the temporally or tissue regulated promoters will be used in connection with the DNA molecule that are expressed at only certain stages of development or only in certain tissues. In some plants, it may also be desirable to use promoters which are responsive to pathogen infiltration or stress. For example, it may be desirable to limit expression of the protein or polypeptide in response to infection by a particular pathogen of the plant. One example of a pathogen-inducible promoter is the gstl promoter from potato, which is described in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,750,874 and 5,723,760 to Strittmayer et al., which are hereby incorporated by reference. Expression of the DNA molecule in isolated plant cells or tissue or whole plants also requires appropriate transcription termination and polyadenylation of mRNA. Any 3 ' regulatory region suitable for use in plant cells or tissue can be operably linked to the first and second DNA molecules. A number of 3' regulatory regions are known to be operable in plants. Exemplary 3 ' regulatory regions include, without limitation, the nopaline synthase 3' regulatory region (Fraley et al., 1983) and the cauliflower mosaic virus 3' regulatory region (Odell et al., 1985). The promoter and a 3' regulatory region can readily be ligated to the DNA molecule using well known molecular cloning techniques described in Sambrook et al, 1989. One approach to transforming plant cells with a DNA molecule of the present invention is particle bombardment (also known as biolistic transformation) of the host cell. This can be accomplished in one of several ways. The first involves propelling inert or biologically active particles at cells. This technique is disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,945,050, 5,036,006, and 5,100,792, all to Sanford, et al. Generally, this procedure involves propelling inert or biologically active particles at the cells under conditions effective to penetrate the outer surface of the cell and to be incorporated within the interior thereof. When inert particles are utilized, the vector can be introduced into the cell by coating the particles with the vector containing the heterologous DNA. Alternatively, the target cell can be surrounded by the vector so that the vector is carried into the cell by the wake of the particle. Biologically active particles (e.g., dried bacterial cells containing the vector and heterologous DNA) can also be propelled into plant cells. Other variations of particle bombardment, now known or hereafter developed, can also be used. Another method of introducing the DNA molecule into plant cells is fusion of protoplasts with other entities, either minicells, cells, lysosomes, or other fusible lipid-surfaced bodies that contain the DNA molecule (Fraley et al., 1982). The DNA molecule may also be introduced into the plant cells by electroporation (Fromm, et al., 1985). In this technique, plant protoplasts are electroporated in the presence of plasmids containing the DNA molecule. Electrical impulses of high field strength reversibly permeabilize biomembranes allowing the introduction of the plasmids. Electroporated plant protoplasts reform the cell wall, divide, and regenerate. Another method of introducing the DNA molecule into plant cells is to infect a plant cell -with Agrobacterium tumefaciens or Agrobacterium rhizogenes previously transformed with the DNA molecule. Under appropriate conditions known in the art, the transformed plant cells are grown to form shoots or roots, and develop further into plants. Generally, this procedure involves inoculating the plant tissue with a suspension of bacteria and incubating the tissue for 48 to 72 hours on regeneration medium without antibiotics at 25-28°C. Agrobacterium is a representative genus of the Gram-negative family Rhizobiaceae. Its species are responsible for crown gall (A. tumefaciens) and hairy root disease (A. rhizogenes). The plant cells in crown gall tumors and hairy roots are induced to produce amino acid derivatives known as opines, which are catabolized only by the bacteria. The bacterial genes responsible for expression of opines are a convenient source of control elements for chimeric expression cassettes. In addition, assaying for the presence of opines can be used to identify transformed tissue. Heterologous genetic sequences such as a DNA molecule of the present invention can be introduced into appropriate plant cells by means of the Ti plasmid of A. tumefaciens or the Ri plasmid of A. rhizogenes. The Ti or Ri plasmid is transmitted to plant cells on infection by Agrobacterium and is stably integrated into the plant genome (Schell, 1987). Plant tissue suitable for transformation include leaf tissue, root tissue, meristems, zygotic and somatic embryos, and anthers. After transformation, the transformed plant cells can be selected and regenerated. Preferably, transformed cells are first identified using, e.g., a selection marker simultaneously introduced into the host cells along with the DNA molecule of the present invention. Suitable selection markers include, without limitation, markers coding for antibiotic resistance, such as kanamycm resistance (Fraley et al., 1983). A number of antibiotic-resistance markers are known in the art and other are continually being identified. Any known antibiotic-resistance marker can be used to transform and select transformed host cells in accordance with the present invention. Cells or tissues are grown on a selection media containing an antibiotic, whereby generally only those transformants expressing the antibiotic resistance marker continue to grow. Once a recombinant plant cell or tissue has been obtained, it is possible to regenerate a full-grown plant therefrom. Thus, another aspect of the present invention relates to a transgenic plant that includes a DNA molecule of the present invention, wherein the promoter induces transcription of the first DNA molecule in response to infection of the plant by an oomycete. Preferably, the DNA molecule is stably inserted into the genome of the transgenic plant of the present invention. Plant regeneration from cultured protoplasts is described in Evans et al., 1983, and Nasil, 1984 and 1986. It is known that practically all plants can be regenerated from cultured cells or tissues, including but not limited to, all major species of rice, wheat, barley, rye, cotton, sunflower, peanut, corn, potato, sweet potato, bean, pea, chicory, lettuce, endive, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, turnip, radish, spinach, onion, garlic, eggplant, pepper, celery, carrot, squash, pumpkin, zucchini, cucumber, apple, pear, melon, strawberry, grape, raspberry, pineapple, soybean, tobacco, tomato, sorghum, and sugarcane. Means for regeneration vary from species to species of plants, but generally a suspension of transformed protoplasts or a petri plate containing transformed explants is first provided. Callus tissue is formed and shoots may be induced from callus and subsequently rooted. Alternatively, embryo formation can be induced in the callus tissue. These embryos germinate as natural embryos to form plants. The culture media will generally contain various amino acids and hormones, such as auxin and cytokinins. It is also advantageous to add glutamic acid and proline to the medium, especially for such species as corn and alfalfa. Efficient regeneration will depend on the medium, on the genotype, and on the history of the culture. If these three variables are controlled, then regeneration is usually reproducible and repeatable. After the DNA molecule is stably incorporated in transgenic plants, it can be transferred to other plants by sexual crossing or by preparing cultivars. With respect to sexual crossing, any of a number of standard breeding techniques can be used depending upon the species to be crossed. Cultivars can be propagated in accord with common agricultural procedures known to those in the field. Diseases caused by the vast majority of bacterial pathogens result in limited lesions. That is, even when everything is working in the pathogen's favor (e.g., no triggering of the hypersensitive response because of R-gene detection of one of the effectors), the parasitic process still triggers defenses after a couple of days, which then stops the infection from spreading. Thus, the very same effectors that enable parasitism to proceed must also eventually trigger defenses. Therefore, premature expression of these effectors is believed to "turn on" plant defenses earlier (i.e., prior to infection) and make the plant resistant to either the specific bacteria from which the effector protein was obtained or many pathogens. An advantage of this approach is that it involves natural products and plants seem highly sensitive to pathogen effector proteins. According to one embodiment, a transgenic plant is provided that contains a heterologous DNA molecule of the present invention. Preferably, the heterologous DNA molecule is derived from a plant pathogen EEL. When the heterologous DNA molecule is expressed in the transgenic plant, plant defenses are activated, imparting disease resistance to the transgenic plant. The transgenic plant can also contain an R-gene which is activated by the protein or polypeptide product of the heterologous DNA molecule. The R gene can be naturally occurring in the plant or heterologously inserted therein. A number of R genes have been identified in various plant species, including without limitation: RPS2, RPM1, and RPPS from Arabidopsis thaliana; Cf2, CjV, 12, Pto, and Pr from tomato; Nfrom tobacco; L6 and M from flax; Xa2l from rice; and Hslpro-1 from sugar beet. In addition to imparting disease resistance, it is believed that stimulation of plant defenses in transgenic plants of the present invention will also result in a simultaneous enhancement in growth and resistance to insects. According to another embodiment, a plant, transgenic or non- transgenic, is treated with a protein or polypeptide of the present invention. By treating, it is intended to include various forms of applying the protein or polypeptide to the plant. The embodiments of the present invention where the effector polypeptide or protein is applied to the plant can be carried out in a number of ways, including: 1) application of an isolated protein (or composition containing the same) or 2) application of bacteria which do not cause disease and are transformed with a gene encoding the effector protein of the present invention. Jn the latter embodiment, the effector protein can be applied to plants by applying bacteria containing the DNA molecule encoding the effector protein. Such bacteria are preferably capable of secreting or exporting the protein so that the protein can contact plant cells. In these embodiments, the protein is produced by the bacteria inplanta. Such topical application is typically carried out using an effector fusion protein which includes a transduction domain, which will afford transduction domain- mediated spontaneous uptake of the effector protein into cells. Basically, this is carried out by fusing an 11 -amino acid peptide (YGRKKRRQRRR, SEQ. ID. No. 91) by standard rDNA techniques to the N-terminus of the effector protein, and the resulting tagged protein is taken up into cells by a poorly understood process. This peptide is the protein transduction domain (PTD) of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) TAT protein (Schwarze et al., 2000). Other PTDs are known and may possibly be used for this purpose (Prochiantz, 2000). When the effector protein is topically applied to plants, it can be applied as a composition, which includes a carrier in the form, e.g., of water, aqueous solutions, slurries, or dry powders. In this embodiment, the composition contains greater than about 5 nM of the protein of the present invention. Although not required, this composition may contain additional additives including fertilizer, insecticide, fungicide, nematicide, and mixtures thereof. Suitable fertilizers include (NH 4 ) 2 NO 3 . An example of a suitable insecticide is Malathion. Useful fungicides include Captan. Other suitable additives include buffering agents, wetting agents, coating agents, and, in some instances, abrading agents. These materials can be used to facilitate the process of the present invention. According to another aspect of the present invention, a transgenic plant is provided that contains a heterologous DNA molecule that encodes a transcript or a protein or polypeptide capable of disrupting function of a plant pathogen CEL product. Because the genes in the CEL are particularly important in pathogenesis, disrupting the function of their products in plants can result in broad resistance since CEL genes are highly conserved among Gram negative pathogens, particularly along species lines. An exemplary protein or polypeptide which can disrupt function of a CEL product is an antibody, polyclonal or monoclonal, raised against the CEL product using conventional techniques. Once isolated, the antibody can be sequenced and nucleic acids synthesized for encoding the same. Such nucleic acids, e.g., DNA, can be used to transform plants. Transgenic plants can also be engineered so that they are hypersusceptible and, therefore, will support the growth of nonpathogenic bacteria for biotechnological purposes. It is known that many plant pathogenic bacteria can alter « the environment inside plant leaves so that nonpathogenic bacteria can grow. This ability is presumably based on changes in the plant caused by pathogen effector proteins. Thus, transgenic plants expressing the appropriate effector genes can be used for these purposes. According to one embodiment, a transgenic plant including a heterologous DNA molecule of the present invention expresses one or more effector proteins, wherein the transgenic plant is capable of supporting growth of compatible nonpathogenic bacteria (i.e., non-pathogenic endophytes such as various Clavibacter ssp.). The compatible nonpathogenic bacteria can be naturally occurring or it can be recombinant. Preferably, the nonpathogenic bacteria is recombinant and expresses one or more useful products. Thus, the transgenic plant becomes a green factory for producing desirable products. Desirable products include, without limitation, products that can enhance the nutritional quality of the plant or products that are desirable in isolated form. If desired in isolated form, the product can be isolated from plant tissues. To prevent competition between the non-pathogenic bacteria which express the desired product and those that do not, it is possible to tailor the needs of recombinant, non-pathogenic bacteria so that only they are capable of living in plant tissues expressing a particular effector protein or polypeptide of the present invention. The effector proteins or polypeptides of the present invention are believed to alter the plant physiology by shifting metabolic pathways to benefit the parasite and by activating or suppressing cell death pathways. Thus, they may also provide useful tools for efficiently altering the nutrient content of plants and delaying or triggering senescence. There are agricultural applications for all of these possible effects. A further aspect of the present invention relates to diagnostic uses of the CEL and EEL. The CEL genes are universal to species of Gram negative bacteria, particularly pathogenic Gram negative bacteria (such as P. syringae), whereas the EEL sequences are strain-specific and provide a "virulence gene fingerprint" that could be used to track the presence, origins, and movement (and restrict the spread through quarantines) of strains that are particularly threatening. Although the CEL and EEL have been identified in various pathovars of Pseudomonas syringae, it is expected that most all Gram-negative pathogens can be identified, distinguished, and classified based upon the homology of the CEL and EEL genes. According to one embodiment, a method of determining relatedness between two bacteria is carried out by comparing a nucleic acid alignment or amino acid alignment for a CEL of the two bacteria and then determining the relatedness of the two bacteria, wherein a higher sequence identity indicates a closer relationship. The CEL is particularly useful for determining the relatedness of two distinct bacterial species. According to another embodiment, a method of determining relatedness between two bacteria which is carried out by comparing a nucleic acid alignment or amino acid alignment for an EEL of the two bacteria and then determining the relatedness of the two bacteria, wherein a higher sequence identity indicates a closer relationship. The EEL is particularly useful for determining the relatedness of two pathovars of a single bacterial species. Given the methods of determining relatedness of bacteria species and/or pathovars, these methods can be utilized in conjunction with plant breeding programs. By detecting the "virulence gene fingerprint" of pathogens which are prevalent in a particular growing region, it is possible either to develop transgenic cultivars as described above or to identify existing plant cultivars which are resistant to the prevalent pathogens. In addition to the above described uses, another aspect of the present invention relates to gene- and protein-based therapies for animals, preferably mammals including, without limitation, humans, dogs, mice, rats. The P. syringae pv. syringae B728a EEL ORF5 protein (SEQ. ID. No. 32) is a member of the AvrRxv/YopJ protein family. YopJ is injected into human cells by the Yersinia type III secretion system, where it disrupts the function of certain protein kinases to inhibit cytokine release and promote programmed cell death. It is believed that the targets of many pathogen effector proteins (i.e., P. syringae effector proteins) will be universal to eukaryotes and therefore have a variety of potentially useful functions. In fact, two of the proteins in the P. syringae Hrp pathogenicity islands are toxic when expressed in yeast. They are HopPsyA from the P. syringae pv. syringae EEL and HopPtoA from the P. syringae pv. tomato DC3000 CEL. This supports the concept of universal eukaryote targets. Thus, a further aspect of the present invention relates to a method of causing eukaryotic cell death which is carried out by introducing into a eukaryotic cell a cytotoxic Pseudomonas protein. The cytotoxic Pseudomonas protein is preferably HopPsyA (e.g., SEQ. ID. Nos. 36 (Psy 61), 62 (Psy 226), or 64 (Psy B143)) HopPtoA (SEQ. ID. No. 7), or HoρPtoA2 (SEQ. ID. No. 66). The eukaryotic cell which is treated can be either in vitro or in vivo. When treating eukaryotic cells in vivo, a number of different protein- or DNA-delivery systems can be employed to introduce the effector protein into the target eukaryotic cell. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that at least the HopPsyA effector proteins exert their cytotoxic effects through Mad2 interactions, disrupting cell checkpoint of spindle formation (see infra). The protein- or DNA-delivery systems can be provided in the form of pharmaceutical compositions which include the delivery system in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, which may include suitable excipients or stabilizers. The dosage can be in solid or liquid form, such as powders, solutions, suspensions, or emulsions. Typically, the composition will contain from about 0.01 to 99 percent, preferably from about 20 to 75 percent of active compound(s), together with the carrier, excipient, stabilizer, etc. The compositions of the present invention are preferably administered in mjectable or topically-applied dosages by solution or suspension of these materials in a physiologically acceptable diluent with a pharmaceutical carrier. Such carriers include sterile liquids, such as water and oils, with or without the addition of a surfactant and other pharmaceutically and physiologically acceptable carrier, including adjuvants, excipients or stabilizers. Illustrative oils are those of petroleum, animal, vegetable, or synthetic origin, for example, peanut oil, soybean oil, or mineral oil. In general, water, saline, aqueous dextrose and related sugar solution, and glycols, such as propylene glycol or polyethylene glycol, are preferred liquid carriers, particularly for injectable solutions. Alternatively, the effector proteins can also be delivered via solution or suspension packaged in a pressurized aerosol container together with suitable propellants, for example, hydrocarbon propellants like propane, butane, or isobutane with conventional adjuvants. The materials of the present invention also may be administered in a non-pressurized form such as in a nebulizer or atomizer. Depending upon the treatment being effected, the compounds of the present invention can be administered orally, topically, transdermally, parenterally, subcutaneously, intravenously, intramuscularly, intraperitoneally, by intranasal instillation, by intracavitary or intravesical instillation, intraocularly, intraarterially, intralesionally, or by application to mucous membranes, such as, that of the nose, throat, and bronchial tubes. Compositions within the scope of this invention include all compositions wherein the compound of the present invention is contained in an amount effective to achieve its intended purpose. While individual needs vary, determination of optimal ranges of effective amounts of each component is within the skill of the art. One approach for delivering an effector protein into cells involves the use of liposomes. Basically, this involves providing a liposome which includes that effector protein to be delivered, and then contacting the target cell with the liposome under conditions effective for delivery of the effector protein into the cell. Liposomes are vesicles comprised of one or more concentrically ordered lipid bilayers which encapsulate an aqueous phase. They are normally not leaky, but can become leaky if a hole or pore occurs in the membrane, if the membrane is dissolved or degrades, or if the membrane temperature is increased to the phase transition temperature. Current methods of drug delivery via liposomes require that the liposome carrier ultimately become permeable and release the encapsulated drug at the target site. This can be accomplished, for example, in a passive manner wherein the liposome bilayer degrades over time through the action of various agents in the body. Every liposome composition will have a characteristic half-life in the circulation or at other sites in the body and, thus, by controlling the half-life of the liposome composition, the rate at which the bilayer degrades can be somewhat regulated. In contrast to passive drug release, active drug release involves using an agent to induce a permeability change in the liposome vesicle. Liposome ; membranes can be constructed so that they become destabilized when the environment becomes acidic near the liposome membrane (see, e.g., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 84:7851 (1987); Biochemistry 28:908 (1989), which are hereby incorporated by reference). When liposomes are endocytosed by a target cell, for example, they can be routed to acidic endosomes which will destabilize the liposome and result in drug release. Alternatively, the liposome membrane can be chemically modified such that an enzyme is placed as a coating on the membrane which slowly destabilizes the liposome. Since control of drug release depends on the concentration of enzyme initially placed in the membrane, there is no real effective way to modulate or alter drug release to achieve "on demand" drug delivery. The same problem exists for pH- sensitive liposomes in that as soon as the liposome vesicle comes into contact with a target cell, it will be engulfed and a drop in pH will lead to drug release. This liposome delivery system can also be made to accumulate at a target organ, tissue, or cell via active targeting (e.g., by incorporating an antibody or hormone on the surface of the liposomal vehicle). This can be achieved according to known methods. Different types of liposomes can be prepared according to Bangham et al., (1965); U.S. Patent No. 5,653,996 to Hsu et al., U.S. Patent No. 5,643,599 to Lee et al.; U.S. Patent No. 5,885,613 to Holland et al.; U.S. Patent No. 5,631,237 to Dzau et al.; and U.S. Patent No. 5,059,421 to Loughrey et al. An alternative approach for delivery of effector proteins involves the conjugation of the desired effector protein to a polymer that is stabilized to avoid enzymatic degradation of the conjugated effector protein. Conjugated proteins or polypeptides of this type are described in U.S. Patent No. 5,681,811 to Ekwuribe. Yet another approach for delivery of proteins or polypeptides involves preparation of chimeric proteins according to U.S. Patent No. 5,817,789 to Heartlein et al. The chimeric protein can include a ligand domain and, e.g., an effector protein of the present invention. The ligand domain is specific for receptors located on a target cell. Thus, when the chimeric protein is delivered intravenously or otherwise introduced into blood or lymph, the chimeric protein will adsorb to the targeted cell, and the targeted cell will internalize the chimeric protein, which allows the effector protein to de-stabilize the cell checkpoint control mechanism, affording its cytotoxic effects. When it is desirable to achieve heterologous expression of an effector protein of the present invention in a target cell, DNA molecules encoding the desired effector protein can be delivered into the cell. Basically, this includes providing a nucleic acid molecule encoding the effector protein and then introducing the nucleic acid molecule into the cell under conditions effective to express the effector protein in the cell. Preferably, this is achieved by inserting the nucleic acid molecule into an expression vector before it is introduced into the cell. When transforming mammalian cells for heterologous expression of an effector protein, an adenovirus vector can be employed. Adenovirus gene delivery vehicles can be readily prepared and utilized given the disclosure provided in Berkner, 1988, and Rosenfeld et al., 1991. Adeno-associated viral gene delivery vehicles can be constructed and used to deliver a gene to cells. The use of adeno- associated viral gene delivery vehicles in vitro is described in Chatterjee et al. 1992; Walsh et al. 1992; Walsh et al., 1994; Flotte et al., 1993a; Ponnazhagan et al., 1994; Miller et al, 1994; Einerhand et al, 1995; Luo et al., 1995; and Zhou et al., 1996. In vivo use of these vehicles is described in Flotte et al., 1993b and Kaplitt et al., 1994. Additional types of adenovirus vectors are described in U.S. Patent No. 6,057,155 to Wickham et al.; U.S. Patent No. 6,033,908 to Bout et al; U.S. Patent No. 6,001,557 to Wilson et al.; U.S. Patent No. 5,994,132 to Chamberlain et al.; U.S. Patent No. 5,981,225 to Kochanek et al.; U.S. Patent No. 5,885,808 to Spooner et al.; and U.S. Patent No. 5,871,727 to Curiel. Retroviral vectors which have been modified to form infective transformation systems can also be used to deliver nucleic acid encoding a desired effector protein into a target cell. One such type of retroviral vector is ' disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,849,586 to Kriegler et al. Regardless of the type of infective transformation system employed, it should be targeted for delivery of the nucleic acid to a specific cell type. For example, for delivery of the nucleic acid into tumor cells, a high titer of the infective transformation system can be injected directly within the tumor site so as to enhance the likelihood of tumor cell infection. The infected cells will then express the desired effector protein, e.g., HopPtoA, HopPsyA, or HopPtoA2, disrupting cellular functions and producing cytotoxic effects. Particularly preferred is use of the effector proteins of the present invention to treat a cancerous condition (i.e., the eukaryotic cell which is affected is a cancer cell). This can be carried out by introducing a cytotoxic Pseudomonas protein into cancer cells of a patient under conditions effective to inhibit cancer cell division, thereby treating the cancerous condition. By introducing, it is intended that the effector protein is administered to the patient, preferably in the form of a composition which will target delivery to the cancer cells. Alternatively, when using DNA-based therapies, it is intended that the introducing be carried out by administering a target DNA delivery system to the patient such that the cancer cells are targeted and the effector protein is expressed therein. Examples The following Examples are intended to be illustrative and in no way are intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Materials and Methods Bacterial Strains, Culture Conditions, Plasmids, and DNA Manipulation Techniques: Three experimentally amenable strains that represent different levels of diversity in P. syringae were investigated: Psy 61, Psy B728a, and Pto DC3000. (i) Psy 61 is a weak pathogen of bean whose hrp gene cluster, cloned on cosmid pHIRl 1, contains all of the genes necessary for nonpathogenic bacteria like Pseudomonas fluorescens and Escherichia coli to elicit the HR in tobacco and to secrete in culture the HrpZ harpin, a protein with unknown function that is secreted abundantly by the Hrp system (Alfano et al., 1996). The pHJRl 1 hrp cluster has been completely sequenced (Figure 1) (Alfano and CoUmer, 1997), and the hopPsyA gene in the hypervariable region at the left edge of the cluster was shown to encode a protein that has an Avr phenotype, travels the Hrp pathway, and elicits cell death when expressed in tobacco cells (Alfano and CoUmer, 1997; Alfano et al., 1997; van Dijk et al., 1999). (ii) Psy B728a is in the same pathovar as strain 61 but is highly virulent and is a model for studying the role of the Hrp system in epiphytic fitness and pathogenicity (brown spot of bean) in the field (Hirano et al., 1999). (iii) Pto DC3000 is a well-studied pathogen of Arabidopsis and tomato (causing bacterial speck) that is highly divergent from pathovar syringae strains. Analysis of rRNA operon RFLP patterns has indicated that Pto and Psy are distantly related and could be considered separate species (Manceau and Horvais, 1997). Thus, we were able to compare two strains in the same pathovar with a strain from a highly divergent pathovar. Conditions for culturing E. coli and P. syringae strains have been described (vanDijk et al., 1999), as have the sources for Psy 61 (Preston et al., 1995), Psy B728a (Hirano et al., 1999), and Pto DC3000 (Preston et al., 1995). Cloning and DNA manipulations were done in E. coli DH5α using pBluescript II (Stratagene, La JoUa, CA), pRK415 (Keen et al., 1988), and cosmid pCPP47 (Bauer and CoUmer, 1997), according to standard procedures (Ausubel et al., 1994). Cosmid libraries of Pto DC3000 and Psy B728a genomic DNA were previously constructed (Charkowski et al., 1998). Oligonucleotide synthesis and DNA sequencing were performed at the Cornell Biotechnology Center. The nucleotide sequence of the Pto DC3000 hrp/hrc cluster was determined using subclones of pCPP2473, a cosmid selected from a genomic cosmid library based on hybridization with the hrpK gene of Psy 61. The nucleotide sequence of the Psy B728a hrp/hrc cluster was determined using subclones of pCPP2346 and pCPP3017. These cosmids were selected from a genomic library based on hybridization with the hrpC operon of 61. The left side of the Psy 61 ΕΕL region was cloned by PCR into pBSKSπ+ Xhol and EcoRI sites using the following primers: SΕQ. JD. NO. 71, which primes within queA and contains anXhol site: atgactcgag gcgtggattc aggcaaat 28 SΕQ. ID. NO. 72, which primes within hopPsyA and contains an EcoRI site: atgagaattc tgccgccgct ttctcgtt 28 Pfu polymerase was used for all PCR experiments. DNA sequence data were managed and analyzed with the DNAStar Program (Madison, WI), and databases were searched with the BLASTX, BLASTP, and BLASTN programs (Altschul et al., 1997). Mutant Construction and Analysis: Large deletions in the Pto DC3000 Hrp Pai were constructed by subcloning border fragments into restriction sites on either side of an ΩSp R cassette in pRK415, electroporating the recombinant plasmids into DC3000, and then selecting and screening for marker exchange mutants as described (Alfano et al., 1996). The following left and right side (Figures 2 and 3) deletion border fragments were used (with residual gene fragments indicated): for CUCPB5110 left tgt-gueA-ϊRNA- 1 " - ORF4' (27 bp of ORF4) and right ORFl '-hrpK (396 bp of ORFl); and for CUCPB5115 left hrpS'-avrE' (2569 bp of avrE) and right ORF6 (156 bp upstream of ORF6 start codon). The later fragment was PCR-amplified using the following primers: SEQ. ID. NO. 73, which primes in the ORF5-ORF6 intergenic region and contains an Xbaϊ site: cgctctagac caaggactgc 20 SEQ. ID. NO. 74, which primes in ORF6 and contains a HindΩI site: ccagaagctt ctgtttttga gtc 23 Mutant constructions were confirmed by Southern hybridizations using previously described conditions (Charkowski et al., 1998). The ability of mutants to secrete AvrPto was determined with anti-AvrPto antibodies and immunoblot analysis of cell fractions as previously described (van Dijk et al., 1999). Mutant CUCPB5115 was complemented with pCPP3016, which carries ORF2 through ORFIO in cosmid pCPP47, and was introduced from E. coli DH5 by triparental mating using helper strain E. coli DH5α(ρRK600), as described (Charkowski et al., 1998). T7 Expression Analysis: Protein products of the Pto DC3000 EEL were analyzed by T7 polymerase-dependent expression using vector pET21 and E. coli BL21(DE3) as previously described (Huang et al., 1995). The following primer sets were used to PCR each ORF from pCPP3091, which carries in pBSKSII+ aBamHl fragment containing tgt to hrcV: ORFl, SEQ. ID.

Nos. 83 and 84, respectively: agtaggatcc agaattgttg aagaaatc 28 agtaaagctt tgcgctgtta actcatcg 28 Plant Bioassays: Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Xanthi) and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cvs. Moneymaker and Rio Grande) were grown under greenhouse conditions and then maintained at 25°C with daylight and supplemental halide illumination for HR and virulence assays. Bacteria were grown overnight on King's medium B agar supplemented with appropriate antibiotics, suspended in 5 mM MES pH 5.6, and then infiltrated with a needleless syringe into the leaves of test plants at 10 8 cfu/ml for HR assays and 10 4 cfu/ml for pathogenicity assays (Charkowski et al., 1998). All assays were repeated at least four times on leaves from different plants. Bacterial growth in tomato leaves was assayed by excising disks from infiltrated areas with a cork borer, comminuting the tissue in 0.5 ml of 5 mM MES, pH 5.6, with a Kontes Pellet Pestle (Fisher Scientific, Pittsburgh, PA), and then dilution plating the homogenate on King's medium B agar with 50 μg/ml rifampicin and 2 μg/ml cycloheximide to determine bacterial populations. The mean and SD from three leaf samples were determined for each time point. The relative growth in planta of DC3000 and CUCPB5110 was similarly assayed in 4 independent experiments and the relative growth of DC3000, CUCPB5115, and CUCPB5115(pCPP3016) in 3 independent experiments. Although the final population levels achieved by DC3000 varied between experiments, the populations levels of the mutants relative to the wild type were the same as in the representative experiments presented below. Example 1 - Comparison of hrp/hrc Gene Clusters of sy 61, Psy B728a, and Pto DC3000 To determine if the hrp/hrc clusters from Psy B728a and Pto DC3000 were organized similarly to the previously characterized hrp/hrc cluster of Psy 61, two cosmids carrying hrp/hrc inserts were partially characterized. pCPP2346 carries the entire hrp/hrc cluster of B728a, and pCPP2473 carries the left half of the hrp/hrc cluster of DC3000. The right half of the DC3000 hrp/hrc cluster had been characterized previously (Preston et al., 1995). Sequencing the ends of several subclones derived from these cosmids provided fingerprints of the B728a and DC3000 hrp/hrc clusters, which indicated that both are arranged like that of strain 61 (Fig. 1). However, B728a contains between hrcU and hrpVa 3.6-kb insert with homologs of bacteriophage lambda genes Ea59 (23% amino-acid identity; E = 2e-7) and Ea31 (30% amino-acid identity; E = 6e-8) (Hendrix et al., 1983), and the B728a hrcU ORF has 36 additional codons. A possible insertion of this size in several Psy strains that are highly virulent on bean was suggested by a previous RFLP analysis (Legard et al., 1993). Cosmid pCPP2346, which contains the B728a hrp/hrc region and flanking sequences (4 kb on the left and 13 kb on the right), enabled P. fluorescens to secrete the B728a HrpZ harpin in culture and to elicit the HR in tobacco leaves, however, confluent necrosis developed more slowly than with P. fluorescens(pHIR.l 1) (data not shown). To further test the relatedness of the Psy 61 and B728a hrp/hrc gene clusters using an internal reference, the B728a hrpA gene was sequenced. Of the hrp/hrc genes that have been sequenced in Psy and Pto, hrp A, which encodes the major subunit of the Hrp pilus (Roine et al., 1997), is the least conserved (28% amino-acid identity) (Preston et al., 1995). However, the hrpA genes of strains 61 and B728a were 100% identical, which further supports the close relationship of these strains and their Hrp systems. Example 2 - Identification of an Exchangeable Effector Locus (EEL) in the Hrp Pai between hrpK and tRNA Leu Sequence analysis of the left side of the Psy 61, Psy B728a, and Pto DC3000 Hrp Pais revealed that the high percentage identity in hrpK sequences in these strains abruptly terminates three nucleotides after the hrpK stop codon and then is restored near tRNA Leu , queA, and tgt sequences after 2.5 kb (Psy 61), 7.3 kb (Psy B728a), or 5.9 kb (Pto DC3000) of dissimilar, intervening DNA (Figure 2). The difference between Psy strains 61 and B728a in this region was particularly surprising. This region of the P. syringae Hrp Pai was given the EEL designation because it contained completely different effector protein genes (Table 1 below), which appear to be exchanged at this locus at a high frequency. In this regard, it is noteworthy that (i) ORF2 in the B728a EEL is a homolog of avrPphE, which is in a different location, immediately downstream of hrpK (hrpY), in Pph 1302 A (Mansfield et al., 1994), (ii) hopPsyA (firm A) is present in only a few Psy strains (Heu and Hutcheson, 1993 ; Alfano et al., 1997), (iii) and ORF5 in the B728a EEL predicts a protein that is similar to Xanthomonas AvrBsT and possesses multiple motifs characteristic of the AvrRxv family (Ciesiolka et al., 1999). G+C content different from the genomic average is a hallmark of horizontally transferred genes, and the G + C contents of the ORFs in the three EELs are considerably lower than the average of 59-61% for P. syringae (Palleroni et al., 1984) (Table 1 below). They are also lower than hrpK (60%) and queA (63-64%). The ORFs in the Pto DC3000 EEL predict no products with similarity to known effector proteins, however T7 polymerase- dependent expression revealed products in the size range predicted for ORFl, ORF3, and ORF4. Furthermore, the ORFl protein is secreted in a Λrp-dependent manner by E. co/z ' (pCPP2156), which expresses an Erwinia chrysanthemi Hrp system that secretes P. syringae Avr proteins (Ham et al., 1998). Several ORFs in these EELs are preceded by Hrp boxes indicative of HrpL-activated promoters (Figure 1) (Xiao and Hutcheson, 1994), and the lack of intervening Rho-independent terminator sequences or promoters suggests that ORFl in DC3000 and ORFl and ORF2 in B728a are expressed from HrpL-activated promoters upstream of the respective hrpK genes. The EELs of these three strains also contain sequences homologous to insertion sequences, transposases, phage integrase genes, and plasmids (Figure 2 and Table 1 below). The Psy B728a ORF5 and ORF6 operon is bordered on the left side by sequences similar to those in a Pph plasmid that carries several avr genes (Jackson et al., 1999) and by a sequence homologous to insertion elements that are typically found on plasmids, suggesting plasmid integration via an IS element in this region (Szabo and Mills, 1984). Psy B728a ORF3 and ORF4 show similarity to sequences implicated in the horizontal acquisition of the LEE Pai by pathogenic E. coli strains (Perna et al., 1998). These Psy B728a ORFs are not preceded by Hrp boxes and are unlikely to encode effector proteins.

The left border of the EELs contains sequences similar to many tRNA 1"6 " genes and to E. coli queA and tgt queuosine biosynthesis genes (ca. 70% amino-acid identity in predicted products). The EEL sequences terminate at the 3' end of the P. syringae tRNA sequences, as is typical for Pais (Hou, 1999). Virtually identical tgt-#we l-tRNA Leu sequences are found in the genome of P. aeruginosa PAO1 (www.pseudomonas.com), which is also in the fluorescent pseudomonad group. But PAO1 is not a plant pathogen, and this tRNA Leu in P. aeruginosa is not linked to any type BT secretion system genes or other genes in the Hrp Pai (Figure 2). Thus, this is the apparent point of insertion of the Hrp Pai in the ancestral Pseudomonas genome. Example 3 - Identification of a Conserved Effector locus (CEL) Located on the Right Side of the Hrp Pai in Psy B728a and Pto DC3000 Previous studies of the region to the right of hrpR in DC3000 had revealed the existence of the avrE locus, which is comprised of two transcriptional units (Lorang and Keen, 1995), the 5' sequences for the first 4 transcriptional units beyond hrpR (Lorang and Keen, 1995), and the identity of the fourth transcriptional unit as the hrpW gene encoding a second harpin (Charkowski et al, 1998). The DNA sequence of the first 14 ORFs to the right of hrpR in Pto DC3000 was completed in this investigation and the corresponding region in Psy B728a was partially sequenced (Figure 3). Like the ΕΕL, this region contains putative effector genes, e.g., avrE (Lorang and Keen, 1995). Unlike the ΕΕL, the ORFs in this region have an average G + C content of 58.0% , which is close to that of the hrp/hrc genes, the region contains no sequences similar to known mobile genetic elements, and it appears conserved between Psy and Pto (Figure 3). Comparison of the regions sequenced in B728a and DC3000 revealed that the first 7 ORFs are arranged identically and have an average DNA sequence identity of 78%. Hence, this region was given the CΕL designation. The precise border of the CΕL remains undefined, and no sequences that were repeated in the ΕΕL border of the Hrp Pai were found. ORF7 and ORF8 are likely to be part of the CΕL, based on the presence of an upstream Hrp box (Figure 3). However, the region beyond ORFIO probably is not in the CΕL because the product of the next ORF shows homology to a family of bacterial GstA proteins (e.g., 28% identity with E. coli GstA over 204 amino acids; E = le-8)(Blattner et al, 1997), and glutathione-S-transferase activity is common in nonpathogenic fluorescent pseudomonads (Zablotowicz et al, 1995). The presence of agalP homolog (38% identity over 256 amino acids, based on incomplete sequence, to E. coli GalP; Ε = 2e- 42) (Blattner et al, 1997) in this region further suggests that it is beyond the CΕL. Several other features of this region in B728a and DC3000 are noteworthy, (i) Both strains have a 1-kb intergenic region between hrpR and ORFl that is distinguished by low sequence identity (44%) but which contains three inverted repeats that could form stem loop structures affecting expression of the hrpRS operon. (ii) ORFl is most similar to E. coli murein lytic transglycosylase MltD (38% identity over 324 amino acids; E = 4e-56). (iii) ORF2 is 42% identical over 130 amino acids with E. amylovora DspF (E = 9e-24), a candidate chaperone (Bogdanove et al, 1998a; Gaudriault et al, 1997). (iv) The ORF5 protein is secreted in a A -dependent manner by E. co/ϊ(pCPP2156), but mutation with an ΩSp r cassette has little effect on either HR elicitation in tobacco or pathogenicity in tomato (Charkowski, unpublished), (v) Finally, six operons in this region are preceded by Hrp boxes (Lorang and Keen, 1995) (Figure 3), which is characteristic of known avr genes in P. syringae (Alfano et al, 1996). Thus, the CΕL carries multiple candidate effectors. Example 4 - Investigation of EEL and CEL Roles in Pathogenicity A mutation was constructed in DC3000 that replaced all of the ORFs between hrpK and tRNA Leu (EEL) with an ΩSp r cassette (Figure 2) . This Pto mutant, CUCPB5110, was tested for its ability to elicit the HR in tobacco and to cause disease in tomato. The mutant retained the ability to elicit the HR and to produce disease symptoms, but it failed to reach population levels as high as the parental strain in tomato (Figure 4A). A mutation was constructed in DC3000 that replaced avrE through ORF5 (CEL) with an ΩSρ r cassette. This deleted all of the CEL ORFs that were both partially characterized and likely to encode effectors. This Pto mutant, CUCPB5115, still elicited the HR in tobacco, but tissue collapse was delayed ca. 5 h (Figure 4C). The mutant no longer elicited disease symptoms in tomato when infiltrated at a concentration of 10 4 cfu/ml, and growth in planta was strongly reduced (Figure 4B). However, the mutant elicited an HR dependent on the tomato Pto R gene that was indistinguishable from the wild-type in tests involving PtoS (susceptible) and PtoR (resistant) Rio Grande tomato lines. Plasmid pCPP3016, which carries ORF2 through ORFIO, fully restored the ability of CUCPB5115 to cause disease symptoms and partially restored the ability of the mutant to multiply in tomato leaves (Figures 4B and 4E). Deletion of the hrp/hrc cluster abolishes HR and pathogenicity phenotypes in Pto DC3000 (CoUmer et al, 2000). To confirm that the large deletions in Pto mutants CUCPB5110 and CUCPB5115 did not disrupt Hrp secretion functions, we compared the ability of these mutants, the DC3000 hrp/hrc deletion mutant, and wild- type DC3000 to make and secrete AvrPto in culture while retaining a cytoplasmic marker comprised of β-lactamase lacking its signal peptide. AvrPto provided an ideal subject for this test because it is a well-studied effector protein that is secreted in culture and injected into host cells in planta (Alfano and CoUmer, 1997; van Dijk et al, 1999). Only the hrp/hrc deletion cluster mutant was impaired in AvrPto production and secretion (Figure 5). Based on the above studies, the P. syringae hrp/hrc genes are part of a Hrp Pai that has three distinct loci: an EEL, the hrp/hrc gene cluster, and a CEL. The EEL harbors exchangeable effector genes and makes only a quantitative contribution to parasitic fitness in host plants. The hrp/hrc locus encodes the Hrp secretion system and is required for effector protein delivery, parasitism, and pathogenicity. The CEL makes no discernible contribution to Hrp secretion functions but contributes strongly to parasitic fitness and is required for Pto pathogenicity in tomato. The Hrp Pai of P. syringae has several properties of Pais possessed by animal pathogens (Hacker et al, 1997), including the presence of many virulence-associated genes (several with relatively low G+C content) in a large (ca. 50-kb) chromosomal region linked to a tRNA locus and absent from the corresponding locus in a closely related species. In addition, the EEL portion of the Hrp Pai is unstable and contains many sequences related to mobile genetic elements. The EEL is a novel feature of known Pais, which is likely involved in fine-tuning the parasitic fitness of P. syringae strains with various plant hosts. By comparing closely- and distantly-related strains of P. syringae, we were able to establish the high instability of this locus and the contrasting high conservation of its border sequences. No single mechanism can explain the high instability, as we found fragments related to phages, insertion sequences, and plasmids in the Psy and Pto EELs, and insertion sequences were recently reported in the corresponding region of three other P. syringae strains (Inoue and Takikawa, 1999). The mechanism or significance of the localization of the EELs between tRNA u and hrpK sequences in the Hrp Pais also is unclear. Pto DC3000 carries at least one other effector gene, avrPto, that is located elsewhere in the genome (Ronald et al, 1992), many P. syringae avr genes are located on plasmids (Leach and White, 1996), and the EEL ORFs represent a mix of widespread, (e.g., avrRxv family) and seemingly rare (e.g., hopPsyA), effector genes. The G + C content of the EEL ORFs is significantly lower than that of the rest of the Hrp Pai and the P. syringae genome. Although certain genes in the non-EEL portions of the Hrp Pai, such as hrp A, are highly divergent, they have a high G + C content, and there is no evidence that they have been horizontally transferred separately from the rest of the Hrp Pai. The relatively low G + C content of the ORFs in the EELs (and of other P. syringae avr genes) suggests that these genes may be horizontally acquired from a wider pool of pathogenic bacteria than just P. syringae (Kim et al, 1998). Indeed, the avrRxv family of genes is found in a wide range of plant and animal pathogens (Ciesiolka et al, 1999). The weak effect on parasitic fitness of deleting the Pto DC3000 EEL, or of mutating hopPsyA (hrmA) in Psy 61 (Huang et al, 1991), is typical of mutations in individual avr genes and presumably results from redundancy in the effector protein system (Leach and White, 1996). The functions of hrpK and of the CEL ORFl are unclear but warrant discussion. These two ORFs reside just outside the hrpL and hrpR delimited cluster of operons containing both hrp and hrc genes and thereby spatially separate the three regions of the Hrp Pai (Figures 1-3). hrpK mutants have a variable Hrp phenotype (Mansfield et al, 1994; Bozso et al, 1999), and a Psy B728a hrpK mutant still secretes HrpZ (Alfano, unpublished), which suggests that HrpK may be an effector protein. Nevertheless, the HrpK proteins of Psy 61 and Pto DC3000 are 79% identical and therefore are more conserved than many Hrp secretion system components. It is also noteworthy that hrpK appears to be in an operon with other effector genes in Psy B728a and Pto DC3000. In contrast, the CEL ORFl may contribute (weakly or redundantly) to Hrp secretion functions by promoting penetration of the system through the bacterial peptidoglycan layer. The ORFl product has extensive homology with E. coli MltD and shares a lysozyme-like domain with the product of ipgF (Mushegian et al, 1996), a Shigella flexneri gene that is also located between loci encoding a type πi secretion system and effector proteins (Allaoui et al, 1993). Mutations in these genes in Pto and S. flexneri have no obvious phenotype (Lorang and Keen, 1995; Allaoui et al, 1993), as is typical for genes encoding peptidoglycan hydrolases (Dijkstra and Keck, 1996). The loss of pathogenicity in Pto mutant CUCPB5115, with an avrE- ORF5 deletion in the CEL, was surprising because pathogenicity is retained in DC3000 mutants in which the corresponding operons are individually disrupted (Lorang and Keen, 1995; Charkowski et al, 1998). In assessing the possible function of this region and the conservation of its constituent genes, it should be noted that avrE is unlike other avr genes found in Pto in that it confers avirulence to P. syringae pv glycinea on all tested soybean cultivars and it has a homolog (dspE) in E. amylovora that is required for pathogenicity (Lorang and Keen, 1995; Bogdanove et al, 1998b). Although the CEL is required for pathogenicity, it is not essential for type III effector protein secretion because the mutant still secretes AvrPto. It also appears to play no essential role in type III translocation of effector proteins into plant cells because the mutant still elicits the HR in nonhost tobacco and in a PtoR- resistance tomato line, and pHIRl 1, which lacks this region, appears capable of translocating several Avr proteins (Gopalan et al, 1996; Pirhonen et al, 1996). The conservation of this region in the divergent pathovars Psy and Pto, and its importance in disease, suggests that the products of the CEL may be redundantly involved in a common, essential aspect of pathogenesis. The similar G + C content and codon usage of the hrp/hrc genes, the genes in the CEL, and total P. syringae genomic DNA suggests that the Hrp Pai was acquired early in the evolution of P. syringae. Although, the EEL region may have similarly developed early in the radiation of P. syringae into its many pathovars, races, and strains, the apparent instability that is discussed above suggests ongoing rapid evolution at this locus. Indeed, many P. syringae avr genes are associated with mobile genetic elements, regardless of their location (Kim et al, 1998). Thus, it appears that Hrp-mediated pathogenicity in P. syringae is collectively dependent on a set of genes that are universal among divergent pathovars and on another set that varies among strains even in the same pathovar. The latter are presumably acquired and lost in response to opposing selection pressures to promote parasitism while evading host R-gene surveillance systems. Example 5 - Role of ShcA as a Type III Chaperone for the HopPsyA Effector The ORF upstream of hopPsyA, tentatively named shcA, encodes a protein product of the predicted molecular mass. The ORF upstream of the hopPsyA gene in P. s. syringae 61 (originally designated ORFl) shares sequence identity with exsC and ORF7, which are genes adjacent to type πi effector genes in P. aeruginosa and Yersinia pestis, respectively (Frank and Iglewski, 1991; Perry et al, 1998). Although neither of these ORFs have been shown experimentally to encode chaperones, they have been noted to share properties that type III chaperones often possess (Cornellis et al, 1998). One of these properties is the location of the chaperone gene itself (Figures 1 and 6). Chaperone genes are often adjacent to a gene that encodes the effector protein with which the chaperone interacts. Furthermore, shcA also shares other common characteristics of type III chaperones: its protein product is relatively small (about 14 kDa), it has an acidic pi, and it has a C-terminal region that is predicted to be an amphipathic α-helix. To begin assessing the function of shcA, it was first determined whether shcA encodes a protein product. A construct was prepared using PCR that fused shcA in-frame to a sequence encoding the FLAG epitope. This construct, pLN26, contains the nucleotide sequence upstream of shcA, including a putative ribosome binding site (RBS). DH5αF'IQ(pLN26) cultures were grown in rich media and induced at the appropriate density with IPTG. Whole cell lysates were separated by SDS-PAGE and analyzed with immunoblots using anti- FLAG antibodies. By comparing the ShcA-FLAG encoded by pLN26 to a construct that made ShcA-FLAG from a vector RBS, it was concluded that the native RBS upstream of shcA was competent for translation (Figure 7). Thus, the shcA ORF is a legitimate gene that encodes a protein product. To test the effects of shcA on bacterial-plant interactions, an shcA mutation was constructed in the minimalist hrp/hrc cluster carried on cosmid pHIRl 1. There are distinct advantages to having the shcA mutation marker-exchanged into pHJRl 1. The main one is that the HR assay can be used as a screen to determine if HopPsyA is being translocated into plant cells because the pHIRl 1 -dependent HR requires the delivery of HopPsyA into plant cells (Alfano et al, 1996; Alfano et al, 1997). With the chromosomal shcA mutant, other Hop proteins would probably be delivered to the interior of plant cells. Some of these proteins would be recognized by the R gene-based plant surveillance system and initiate an HR masking any defect in HopPsyA delivery. E. coli MC4100 carrying pLNIO, a pHIRl 1 derivative, which contains a nonpolar nptll cartridge within shcA, was unable to elicit an HR on tobacco (Figure 8). This indicates that shcA is required for the translocation of HopPsyA into plant cells. To determine if HopPsyA was secreted in culture, cultures of the nonpathogen P. fluorescens 55 were grown. This bacterium carried either pHIRl 1, pCPP2089 (a pHIRl 1 derivative defective in type III secretion), or pLNIO. The representative results can be seen in Figure 8. shcA was required for the in-culture type III secretion of the HopPsyA effector protein, but not for HrpZ secretion, another protein secreted by the pHIRl 1 encoded Hrp system. These results indicate that the defect in type III secretion is specific to HopPsyA and are consistent with shcA encoding a chaperone for HopPsyA. It was after these results that the ORF upstream of the hopPsyA gene was named shcA for specific hop chaperone for HopPsyA, a naming system consistent with the naming system researchers have employed for chaperones in the archetypal Yersinia type III system. Example 6 - Cytotoxic Effects of hopPsyA Expressed in Plants Transient expression of hopPsyA DΝA in planta induces cell death in Nicotiana tabacum, but not in N. benthamiana, bean, or in Arabidopsis. To determine whether HopPsyA induced cell death on tobacco leaves as it did when produced in tobacco suspension cells, a transformation system that delivers the hopPsyA gene on T-DΝA of Agrobacterium tumefaciens was used (Rossi et al, 1993; van den Ackerveken et al, 1996). This delivery system works better than biolistics for transiently transforming whole plant leaves. For these experiments, vector pTA7002, kindly provided by Νam-Hai Chua and his colleagues at Rockefeller University, was used. The unique property of this vector is that it contains an inducible expression system that uses the regulatory mechanism of the glucocorticoid receptor (Picard et al, 1988; Aoyama and Chua, 1997; McΝellis et al, 1998). pTA7002 encodes a chimeric transcription factor consisting of the DΝA-binding domain of GAL4, the fransactivating domain of the herpes viral protein NP16, and the receptor domain of the rat glucocorticoid receptor. Also contained on this vector is a promoter containing GAL4 upstream activating sequences (UAS) upstream of a multiple cloning site. Thus, any gene cloned downstream of the promoter containing the GAL4-UAS is induced by glucocorticoids, of which a synthetic glucocorticoid, dexamethasone (DEX), is available commercially. hopPsyA was PCR-cloned downstream of the GAL4-UAS. Plant leaves from several different test plants were infiltrated with Argrobacterium carrying pTA7002: -.hopPsyA and after 48 hours these plants were sprayed with DEX. Only N. tαbαcum elicited an HR in response to the DEX-induced transient expression of hopPsyA (Figure 13A). In contrast, N. benthamiana produced no obvious response after DEX induction (Figure 13B). Moreover, transient expression of hopPsyA in bean plants (Phaseolus vulgaris L. 'Eagle')(data not shown) and Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Col-1 (Figure 13) did not result in a HR. These results suggest that bean cv. Eagle, Arabidopsis Col-1, and N. benthamiana lack a resistance protein that can recognize HopPsyA. The lack of an apparent defense response for HopPsyA transiently expressed in bean was predicted, because HopPsyA is normally produced in P. s. syringae 61, a pathogen of bean. But, it was somewhat unknown how transient expression of HopPsyA would effect Arabidopsis. However, since P. s. tomato DC3000, a pathogen of Arabidopsis, appears to have a hopPsyA homolog based on DΝA gel blots using hopPsyA as a probe, it was expected that HopPsyA would not to be recognized by an R protein in Arabidopsis (i.e., no HR produced) (Alfano et al, 1997). Thus, these plants (bean, Arabidopsis, and N. benthamiana) should represent ideal plants to explore the bacterial-intended role of HopPsyA in plant pathogenicity. P.s. pv. syringae 61 secretes HopPsyA in culture via the Hrp (type III) protein secretion system. Because the P. syringae Avr proteins AvrB and AvrPto were found to be secreted by the type III secretion system encoded by the functional E. chrysanthemi hrp cluster carried on cosmid pCPP2156 expressed in E. coli (Ham et al, 1998), detection of HopPsyA secretion in culture directly via the native Hrp system carried in P. s. syringae 61 was tested. P. s. syringae 61 cultures grown in Ar 7-derepressing fructose minimal medium at 22°C were separated into cell-bound and supernatant fractions by centrifugation. Proteins present in the supernatant fractions were concentrated by TCA precipitation, and the cell-bound and supernatant samples were resolved with SDS-PAGE and analyzed with immunoblots using anti- HopPsyA antibodies. A HopPsyA signal was detected in supernatant fractions from wild type P. s. syringae 61 (Figure 14). Importantly, HopPsyA was not detected in supernatant fractions from P. s. syringae 61-2089, which is defective in Hrp secretion, indicating that the HopPsyA signal in the supernatant was due specifically to type in protein secretion (Figure 14). As a second control, both strains contained pCPP2318, which encodes the mature β-lactamase lacking its N-terminal signal peptide, and provides a marker for cell lysis, β-lactamase was detected only in the cell-bound fractions of these samples, clearly showing that cell lysis did not occur at a significant level (Figure 14). The fact that HopPsyA is secreted via the type III secretion system in culture and that the avirulence activity of HopPsyA occurs only when it is expressed in plant cells strongly support that HopPsyA is delivered into plant cells via the type III pathway. HopPsyA contributes in a detectable, albeit minor, way to growth of P. s. syringae 61 in bean. The effect of a HopPsyA mutation on the multiplication of P. s. syringae 61 in bean tissue has been reported (Huang et al, 1991). These data essentially indicate that HopPsyA contributes little to the ability of P. s. syringae 61 to multiply in bean. The P. s. syringae 61 hopPsyA mutant does not grow as well in bean leaves as the wild-type strain (Figure 15). This was unexpected, because these results are in direct conflict with previously reported data. One rationale for the discrepancy is that the previous reports focused primarily on the major phenotype that a hrp mutant exhibits on in planta growth and predated the discovery that HopPsyA was a type Ill-secreted protein. Thus, it is quite possible that the earlier experiments missed the more subtle effect that HopPsyA appears to have on the multiplication of P. s. syringae 61 in bean tissue (Huang et al, 1991). The data presented here supports that HopPsyA contributes to the pathogenicity of P. s. syringae and are consistent with the hypothesis that the majority of Hops from P. syringae contribute subtly to pathogenicity. The lack of strong pathogenicity phenotypes for mutants defective in different avr and hop genes may be due to possible avr/hop gene redundancy or a decreased dependence on any one Hop protein through coevolution with the plant. Indeed, the type Ill-delivered proteins of plant pathogens that are delivered into plant cells may not be virulence proteins per se, but rather they may suppress responses of the plant that are important for pathogenicity to proceed (Jakobek et al, 1993). These responses may be defense responses or other more general processes that maintain the status quo within the plant (e.g., the cell cycle). Example 7 - Molecular Interactions of HopPsyA HopPsyA interacts with the Arabidopsis Mad2 protein in the yeast 2- hybrid system. To determine a pathogenic target for HopPsyA, the yeast 2-hybrid system was used with cDNA libraries made from Arabidopsis (Fields and Song, 1989; Finley and Brent, 1994). In the yeast 2-hybrid system, a fusion between the protein of interest (the "bait") and the LexA DNA-binding domain was transformed into a yeast tester strain. A cDNA expression library was constructed in a vector that creates fusions to a transcriptional activator domain. This library was transformed into the tester strain en masse, and clones encoding partners for the "bait" are selected via their ability to bring the transcriptional activator domain into proximity with the DNA binding domain, thus initiating transcription of the LEU2 selectable marker gene. A second round screening of candidates, that activate the LEU2 marker, relies on their ability to also activate a lacZ reporter gene. Bait constructs were initially made with hopPsyA in the yeast vector pEG202 that corresponded to a full-length HopPsyA- LexA fusion, the carboxy-terminal half of HopPsyA fused to LexA, and the amino- terminal half of HopPsyA fused to LexA, and named these constructs pLN23, pLN24, and pLN25, respectively. However, pLN23 was lethal to yeast and pLN25 activated the lacZ reporter gene in relatively high amounts on its own (i.e., without the activation domain present). Thus, both pLN23 and pLN25 were not used to screen for protein interactors via the yeast 2-hybrid system. pLN24, which contains the 3' portion of hopPsyA fused to lexA, proved to be an appropriate construct to use for bait in the yeast 2-hybrid system, because it did not autoactivate the lacZ reporter gene and, based on the lacZ repression assay using pJKlOl, the 'HopPsyA-LexA fusion produced by pLN24 appeared to localize to the nucleus. In addition, it was confirmed that pLN24 made a protein of the appropriate size that corresponds to HopPsyA by performing immunoblots with anti-HopPsyA antibodies on yeast cultures carrying this vector. Initial screens with pLN24 and Arabidopsis cDΝA libraries in the yeast 2-hybrid vector pJG4-5. From three independent screens, several hundred putative interactors with HopPsyA were identified, each activating the two reporter systems to varying degrees. When these putative positive yeast strains were rescreened and criteria were limited to interactors that strongly induced both the lacZ reporter and LEU2 gene in the presence of galactose, about 50 yeast strains were identified that appeared to contain pJG4-5 derivatives that encoded proteins that could interact with the C-terminal half of HopPsyA. DNA gel blots using PCR-amplified inserts from selected pJG4-5 derivatives as probes allowed each of these putative positives to be grouped. Approximately 50% of the pJG4-5 derivatives that encoded strong HopPsyA interactors belonged to the same group. A pJG4-5 derivative containing this insert, pLNl 16 was sequenced. The predicted amino acid sequence of the insert contained within pLNl 16 shared high amino acid identity to Mad2 homologs (for mitotic arrest deficient) found in yeast, humans, frogs, and corn. Moreover, based on amino acid comparison with the other Mad2 proteins, pLNl 16 contains a cDΝA insert that corresponds to the full-length ma d2 mRΝA. Table 2 below shows the amino acid percent identity of all of the Mad2 homologs currently in the databases. Table 2: Percent Amino Acid Sequence Identity Between Different Mad2 Homologs* Mad2 Arabidopsis Corn Human Mouse Frog Fission Budding Homolog Yeast Yeast Arabidopsis Corn 81.3 Human 44.4 44.9 Mouse 45.4 45.9 94.6 Frog 43.3 42.9 78.3 77.3 Fission 40.4 41.9 43.8 43.8 46.3 Yeast Budding 38.3 38.8 39.3 39.3 39.8 45.4 Yeast * Comparisons were made with the MEGALIGΝ program at DNAStar (Madison, WI) using sequences present in Genbank. Abbreviations and accession numbers are as follows: Arabidopsis, A. thaliana Col-0 (this work); Corn, Zea mays (AAD30555); Human, Homo sapiens (NP_002349); Mouse, Mus musculus (AAD09238); Frog, Xenopus laevis, (AAB41527); Fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe (AAB68597); Budding yeast, Saccharamoyces cerevisiae (P40958). Not unexpectedly, the sequence of the Arabidopsis Mad2 protein is more closely related to the corn Mad2, the only plant Mad2 homolog represented in the databases. The corn Mad2 is about 82% identical to the Arabidopsis Mad2. Figures 16A-B show yeast strains containing either pLV24 and pJG4-5, pEG202 and pLNl 16, or pLV24 and pLNl 16 on leucine drop-out plates and plates containing X-Gal, showing that only when both HopPsyA and Mad2 are present, β-galactosidase and LEU2 activity are induced. It is important to note that the cDΝA library that yielded mad2 has been used for many different yeast 2-hybrid screens and a mad2 clone has never been isolated from it before. Thus, the results shown in Figures 16A-B are unlikely to represent an artifact produced by the nature of the cDΝA library. Moreover, different Mad2 homologs are known to interact with specific proteins and one of these homologs was isolated with a yeast 2-hybrid screen using a protein of the spindle checkpoint as bait (Kim et al, 1998). This is reassuring for two reasons. First, other Mad2 homologs do not appear to be nonspecifically "sticky" proteins. Second, they appear to modulate cellular processes through protein-protein interactions. The above results are very promising, because Mad2 is a regulator controlling the transition from metaphase to anaphase during mitosis, a key step in the cell cycle of eukaryotes. The eukaryotic cell cycle is dependent on the completion of earlier events before another phase of the cell cycle can be initiated. For example, before mitosis can occur DΝA replication has to be completed. Some of these dependencies in the cell cycle can be relieved by mutations and represent checkpoints that insure the cell cycle is proceeding normally (Hartwell and Weinert, 1989). In pioneering work, Hoyt et al. and Li and Murray independently discovered that there is a checkpoint in place in Saccharomyces cerevisiae to monitor whether the spindle assembly required for chromosome segregation is completed (Hoyt et al, 1991; Li and Murray, 1991). This so-called spindle checkpoint was discovered when the observation was made that wild-type yeast cells plated onto media containing drugs that disrupt microtubule polymerization arrested in mitosis, whereas certain mutants proceeded into anaphase. These initial reports identified 6 different nonessential genes that are involved in the spindle checkpoint: bub 1-3 named for budding uninhibited by benzimidazole and madl-3 for mitotic arrest deficient. Mutations in these genes ignore spindle assembly abnormalities and attempt mitosis regardless. In the years since, the spindle checkpoint has been shown to be conserved in other eukaryotes and many advances have occurred resulting in a better picture of what is taking place at the spindle checkpoint (Glotzer, 1996; Rudner and Murray, 1996). Required for the transition from metaphase to anaphase (as well as other cell cycle transitions) is the ubiquitin proteolysis pathway. Proteins that inhibit entry into anaphase (e.g., Pdsl in S. cerevisiae) are tagged for degradation via the ubiquitin pathway by the anaphase-promoting complex (APC) (King et al, 1996). Only when these proteins are degraded by the 26S proteosome are the cells allowed to cycle to anaphase. Although it is not well understood how the APC knows when to tag the anaphase inhibitors for degradation, there have been several important advances (Elledge, 1996; Elledge, 1998; Hardwick, 1998). The Mad2 protein and the Bubl protein kinase have been shown to bind to kinetochores when these regions are not attached to microtubules (Chen et al, 1996; Li and Benezra, 1996; Taylor and McKeon, 1997; Yu et al, 1999). Thus, these proteins appear to somehow relay a signal that all of the chromosomes are not bound to spindle fibers ready to separate. Madl encodes a phosphoprotein, which becomes hyperphosphorylated when the spindle checkpoint is activated and the hyperphosphorylation of Madl is dependent on functional Bubl, Bub3, and Mad2 proteins (Hardwick and Murray, 1995). Another required protein in this checkpoint is Mpsl, a protein kinase that activates the spindle checkpoint when overexpressed in a manner that is dependent on all of the Bub and Mad proteins, indicating that Mpsl acts very early in the spindle checkpoint (Hardwick et al, 1996). Based on data from the different Mad2 homologs that have been studied, Mad2 appears to have a central role in the spindle checkpoint. Addition of Mad2 to Xenopus egg extracts results in inhibition of cyclin B degradation and mitotic arrest due to the inhibition of the ubiquitin ligase activity of the APC (Li et al, 1997). The overexpression of Mad2 from fission yeast causes mitotic arrest by activating the spindle checkpoint (He et al, 1997). Whereas, introducing anti-Mad2 antibodies into mammalian cell cultures causes early transition to anaphase in the absence of microtubule drugs, indicating that Mad2 is involved in the normal cell cycle. Several reports suggest that different Mad2 homologs directly interact with the APC (Li et al, 1997; Fang et al, 1998; Kallio et al, 1998). Another protein called Cdc20 in S. cerevisiae binds to the APC, is required for activation of the APC during certain cell cycles, and Mad2 binds to it (Hwang et al, 1998; Kim et al, 1998; Lorca et al, 1998; Wassmann and Benezra, 1998). The picture that is emerging from all of these exciting findings is that Mad2 acts as an inhibitor of the APC, probably by binding to Cdc20. When Mad2 is not present, the Cdc20 binds to the APC, which activates the APC to degrade inhibitors of the transition to anaphase. Figure 12 shows a summary of the spindle checkpoint focusing on Mad2's involvement and using the names of the spindle checkpoint proteins from S. cerevisiae. The plant spindle checkpoint: A possible target of bacterial pathogens. Many of the cell cycle proteins from animals have homologs in plants (Mironov et al, 1999). In fact, one of the early clues that there existed a spindle checkpoint was first made in plants. The observation noted was that chromosomes that lagged behind in their attachment to the spindle caused a delay in the transition to anaphase (Bajer and Mole-Bajer, 1956). Moreover, mad2 has been recently isolated from corn and the Mad2 protein localization in plant cells undergoing mitosis is consistent with the localization of Mad2 in other systems (Yu et al, 1999). Based on a published meeting report, genes that encode components of the APC from Arabidopsis have been recently cloned (Inze et al, 1999). Thus, it appears that a functional spindle checkpoint probably is conserved in plants. The data presented above shows that the P. syringae HopPsyA protein interacts with the Arabidopsis Mad2 protein in the yeast 2-hybrid system. It is possible that a pathogenic strategy of a bacterial plant pathogen is to alter the plant cell cycle. Duan et al. recently reported that pthA, a member of the avrBs3 family of avr genes from X. citri, is expressed in citrus and causes cell enlargement and cell division, which may implicate the plant cell cycle (Duan et al, 1999). If HopPsyA does target Mad2, at least two possible benefits to pathogenicity can be envisioned. Since plant cells in mature leaves are quiescent, one benefit of delivering HopPsyA into these cells may be that it may trigger cell division through its interaction with Mad2. This is consistent with the observation that anti-Mad2 antibodies cause an early onset of anaphase in mammalian cells (Gorbsky et al, 1998). More plant cells near the pathogen may increase the nutrients available in the apoplast. A second possible benefit may occur if HopPsyA is delivered into plant cells actively dividing in young leaves. Delivery of HopPsyA into plant cells of these leaves may derail the spindle checkpoint through its interaction with Mad2. These cells would be prone to more mistakes segregating their chromosomes; in some cells this would result in death and the cellular contents would ultimately leak into the apoplast providing nutrients for the pathogen. Example 8 - Cytotoxic Effects of HopPtoA and HopPsyA Expressed in Yeast Both hopPtoA (SEQ. ID. No. 6) and hopPsyA (SEQ. JD. No. 35) were first cloned into pFLAG-CTC (Kodak) to generate an in-frame fusion with the FLAG epitope, which permitted monitoring of protein production with anti-FLAG monoclonal antibodies. The FLAG-tagged genes were then cloned under the control of the GALl promoter in the yeast shuttle vector p415GALl (Mumberg et al, 1994). These regulatable promoters of Saccharomyces cerevisiae allowed comparison of transcriptional activity and heterologous expression. The recombinant plasmids were transformed into uracil auxotrophic yeast strains FY833/4, selecting for growth on SC-Ura (synthetic complete medium lacking uracil) based on the presence of the URA3 gene on the plasmid. The transformants were then streaked onto SC-Ura medium plates containing either 2% galactose (which will induce expression of HopPsyA and HopPtoA) or 2% glucose. No growth was observed on the plates supplemented with 2% galactose. This effect was observed with repeated testing and was not observed with empty vector controls, with four other effectors similarly cloned into p415GALl, or when raffinose was used instead of galactose. FLAG- tagged nontoxic Avr proteins were used to confirm that the genes were differentially expressed, as expected, on plates containing galactose. Importantly, the toxic effect with HopPsyA was observed when the encoding gene was recloned into p416GALS, which expresses foreign genes at a substantially lower level than p415GALl.
