eLife, 2014 Chitin is a fungal microbe-associated molecular pattern recognized in Arabidopsis by a lysin motif receptor kinase (LYK), AtCERK1. Previous research suggested that AtCERK1 is the major chitin receptor and mediates chitin-induced signaling through ...

Chitin-induced activation of immune signaling by the rice receptor CEBiP relies on a unique sandwich-type dimerization [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2014 Significance Chitin perception by plant receptors triggers various defense responses important for plant immunity. We show the molecular basis of chitin recognition by the rice receptor, CEBiP (chitin-elicitor binding protein), and following receptor dimerization based on the results of biochemical studies ...

Chitin-Induced Carbotype Conversion in Vibrio vulnificus [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 2011 ABSTRACT As an etiological agent of bacterial sepsis and wound infections, Vibrio vulnificus is unique among the Vibrionaceae . The most intensely studied of its virulence factors is the capsular polysaccharide (CPS).

Conservation of Chitin-Induced MAPK Signaling Pathways in Rice and Arabidopsis [PDF]
Plant and Cell Physiology, 2017 Perception of microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) including chitin by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) rapidly induces activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades. However, how PRRs transmit immune signals to the MAPK cascade is largely unknown.

Chitin modulates innate immune responses of keratinocytes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 BACKGROUND: Chitin, after cellulose the second most abundant polysaccharide in nature, is an essential component of exoskeletons of crabs, shrimps and insects and protects these organisms from harsh conditions in their environment.

Chitin Triggers Tissue-Specific Immunity in Wheat Associated With Fusarium Head Blight
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Fusarium graminearum is one of the primary causal agents of Fusarium head blight (FHB) on wheat and barley. FHB reduces grain yield and contaminates grain with various mycotoxins, including deoxynivalenol (DON).
