Soil Type and Associated Microbiome Influence Chitin's Growth Promotion Effect in Lettuce

Phytobiomes Journal
Chitin amendment of peat substrate has been proven effective in promoting lettuce growth and increasing phenolic compounds in lettuce seedlings. However, the effect of chitin soil amendment on lettuce growth in mineral soil remains unexplored. The effect

Mycosphaerella graminicola LysM Effector-Mediated Stealth Pathogenesis Subverts Recognition Through Both CERK1 and CEBiP Homologues in Wheat

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2014
Fungal cell-wall chitin is a well-recognized pathogen-associated molecular pattern. Recognition of chitin in plants by pattern recognition receptors activates pathogen-triggered immunity (PTI).

Saccharomyces cerevisiae chitin biosynthesis activation by N-acetylchitooses depends on size and structure of chito-oligosaccharides

BMC Research Notes, 2011
Background To explore chitin synthesis initiation, the effect of addition of exogenous oligosaccharides on in vitro chitin synthesis was studied. Oligosaccharides of various natures and lengths were added to a chitin synthase assay performed on a ...

LYM2 mediates chitin-induced plasmodesmal flux reduction in Populus x canescens

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionLysin motif domain-containing glycosylphosphatidyl inositol-anchored protein 2 (LYM2) is a GPI-anchored LysM receptor-like protein (LysM-RLP) that harbors three extracellular LysM-domains and a GPI moiety at the C- terminus. In rice, the LYM2

Complement Component 3C3 and C3a Receptor Are Required in Chitin-Dependent Allergic Sensitization to Aspergillus fumigatus but Dispensable in Chitin-Induced Innate Allergic Inflammation

mBio, 2013
Levels of the anaphylatoxin C3a are increased in patients with asthma compared with those in nonasthmatics and increase further still during asthma exacerbations.

Chitins and Chitosans as Immunoadjuvants and Non-Allergenic Drug Carriers

Marine Drugs, 2010
Due to the fact that some individuals are allergic to crustaceans, the presumed relationship between allergy and the presence of chitin in crustaceans has been investigated.

LysM protein BdLM1 of Botryosphaeria dothidea plays an important role in full virulence and inhibits plant immunity by binding chitin and protecting hyphae from hydrolysis

Frontiers in Plant Science
Botryosphaeria dothidea infects hundreds of woody plants and causes a severe economic loss to apple production. In this study, we characterized BdLM1, a protein from B. dothidea that contains one LysM domain.
