bacteria to function as transcriptional activators for the benefit of the pathogen. The DNA binding domain of TAL effectors is composed of conserved amino acid repeat structures containing repeat-variable diresidues (RVDs) that determine DNA binding specificity. In this paper, we present TALgetter, a new approach for predicting TAL effector target sites based on a statistical model. In contrast to previous approaches, the parameters of TALgetter are estimated from training data computationally. We demonstrate that TALgetter successfully predicts known TAL effector target sites and often yields a greater number of predictions that are consistent with up-regulation in gene expression microarrays than an existing approach, Target Finder of the TALE-NT suite. We study the binding specificities estimated by TALgetter and approve that different RVDs are differently important for transcriptional activation. In subsequent studies, the predictions of TALgetter indicate a previously unreported positional preference of TAL effector target sites relative to the transcription start site. In addition, several TAL effectors are predicted to bind to the TATA-box, which might constitute one general mode of transcriptional activation by TAL effectors. Scrutinizing the predicted target sites of TALgetter, we propose several novel TAL effector virulence targets in rice and sweet orange. TAL-mediated induction of the candidates is supported by gene expression microarrays. Validity of these targets is also supported by functional analogy to known TAL effector targets, by an over-representation of TAL effector targets with similar function, or by a biological function related to pathogen infection. Hence, these predicted TAL effector virulence targets are promising candidates for studying the virulence function of TAL effectors. TALgetter is implemented as part of the open-source Java library Jstacs, and is freely available as a web-application and a command line program.</p>

<abstract><p>Transcription activator-like (TAL) effectors are injected into host plant cells by <italic>Xanthomonas</italic>
bacteria to function as transcriptional activators for the benefit of the pathogen. The DNA binding domain of TAL effectors is composed of conserved amino acid repeat structures containing repeat-variable diresidues (RVDs) that determine DNA binding specificity. In this paper, we present TALgetter, a new approach for predicting TAL effector target sites based on a statistical model. In contrast to previous approaches, the parameters of TALgetter are estimated from training data computationally. We demonstrate that TALgetter successfully predicts known TAL effector target sites and often yields a greater number of predictions that are consistent with up-regulation in gene expression microarrays than an existing approach, Target Finder of the TALE-NT suite. We study the binding specificities estimated by TALgetter and approve that different RVDs are differently important for transcriptional activation. In subsequent studies, the predictions of TALgetter indicate a previously unreported positional preference of TAL effector target sites relative to the transcription start site. In addition, several TAL effectors are predicted to bind to the TATA-box, which might constitute one general mode of transcriptional activation by TAL effectors. Scrutinizing the predicted target sites of TALgetter, we propose several novel TAL effector virulence targets in rice and sweet orange. TAL-mediated induction of the candidates is supported by gene expression microarrays. Validity of these targets is also supported by functional analogy to known TAL effector targets, by an over-representation of TAL effector targets with similar function, or by a biological function related to pathogen infection. Hence, these predicted TAL effector virulence targets are promising candidates for studying the virulence function of TAL effectors. TALgetter is implemented as part of the open-source Java library Jstacs, and is freely available as a web-application and a command line program.</p>

<abstract abstract-type="summary"><title>Author Summary</title>
<p>While it had already been discovered that transcription activator-like (TAL) effectors from <italic>Xanthomonas</italic>
pathogens act as transcription factors in the host plant, deciphering the modular code of DNA binding specificity of TAL effectors in 2009 fascinated the scientific community. This modular code opens the possibility to identify virulence targets of natural TAL effectors in host plants including valuable crops. Knowing these targets deepens our understanding of the role of TAL effectors in virulence. At the same time, it is an opportunity to create resistant plants by destroying TAL effector target sites, indispensable for the pathogen, in plant genomes. However, computational methods are needed to effectively scan full genomes or promoteromes for putative target sites. Hence, we propose TALgetter, a new approach for predicting TAL effector target sites. Using TALgetter, we predict target sites of <italic>Xanthomonas</italic>
TAL effectors in the important crop plants rice and sweet orange. Besides novel putative virulence targets of several TAL effectors, we also gain new insights into the biology of TAL effector targeting. The predictions of TALgetter reveal that target sites are preferentially located in the vicinity of the transcription start and that many TAL effectors bind to the TATA-box in the promoters of target genes.</p>
