Total protein extracts from yeast, Xoo and rice plants and Western blot analyses were performed as previously described [41 (link),54 (link)]. The primary antibodies used were as follows: Anti-OsSERK2 for detection of OsSERK2 [54 (link)], anti-GFP (Santa Cruze Biotech) for detection of EFR::GFP and EFR::XA21::GFP, anti-LexA (Clontech) for detection of LexA-fused proteins expressed in yeast from pLexA, anti-HA (Covance) for detection of HA-tagged proteins expressed in yeast from pB42AD and anti-EF-Tu (Thermo Fisher Scientific, PA5-27512) antibody to detect EF-Tu in Xoo protein preparations. The appropriate secondary antibody, anti-mouse (Santa Cruz Biotech) and anti-rabbit (GE Healthcare) coupled to horseradish peroxidase were used in combination with chemiluminescence substrates (Thermo) to detect proteins by exposure to film.
