A Novel Immunosuppressive Effector Functions as a Bio‐Adjuvant to Enhance the Activity of Bacillus Thuringiensis and Chemical Insecticides

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A previously unrecognized link between quorum sensing and host immune suppression is revealed in Bacillus thuringiensis(Bt). The PlcR‐PapR system induces the novel immunosuppressive effector PisP, which inhibits DAF‐16 nuclear translocation and downstream immune defenses, thereby promoting Bt pathogenicity.
