    Abstract:
    Here, we report a novel protein elicitor from Bacillus subtilis BU412 which could cause hypersensitive response (HR) and systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in tobacco. The purification was executed by ion-exchange and size exclusion chromatography. The target band on SDS-PAGE was analyzed by mass spectrometry, and the peptide mass fingerprinting matched an uncharacterized protein (WP_017418614.1), which was then named AMEP412. AMEP412 could cause a clearly defined HR necrosis in tobacco leaves, which was less affected by thermal treatment. The sub-cellular localization assay revealed that AMEP412 localized on the cell surface. This protein could also trigger early defense events such as the generation of reactive oxygen species (H2O2 and O2-) and the induction of defense enzymes, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), polyphenol oxidase (PPO) and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL). Moreover, AMEP412 could stimulate plant systemic resistance against Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000.
