In plant-pathogen interactions, the host defends against the invading pathogen and the pathogen aims to suppress or subvert this defense. Whereas the defense suppression strategy is relatively well understood for many pathogens, the mechanisms by which pathogens can actively utilize the defense machinery of the host remain obscure. We report that Agrobacterium, a microorganism that elicits neoplastic growths on many plant species, induces expression of a plant defense-related F-box protein, VBF, which it incorporates into its own pathway for genetic transformation. Our data suggest that VBF may function to uncoat the bacterial transferred DNA from its associated virulence VirE2 and host VIP1 proteins via the SCFVBF pathway. Suppression of VBF elevates the intracellular content of VIP1, but renders the plant largely resistant to Agrobacterium, indicating that, in the infection pathway, VBF is functionally epistatic to VIP1. When expressed in Agrobacterium and exported into the plant cell, VBF facilitates tumor formation.
