Chitin-Induced Dimerization Activates a Plant Immune Receptor

Science, 2012
Dissecting Chitin Binding The chitin in fungal cells walls serves as a trigger to initiate plant defenses against pathogenic fungi. Arabidopsis detects these signals through a cell surface chitin receptor whose intracellular kinase domain initiates a signaling cascade in ...

Chitin-induced disease resistance in plants: A review

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules
Chitin is composed of N-acetylglucosamine units. Chitin a polysaccharide found in the cell walls of fungi and exoskeletons of insects and crustaceans, can elicit a potent defense response in plants. Through the activation of defense genes, stimulation of defensive compound production, and reinforcement of physical barriers, chitin enhances the plant's ...

Chitin colonization, chitin degradation and chitin‐induced natural competence of Vibrio cholerae are subject to catabolite repression

Environmental Microbiology, 2012
Summary Although Vibrio cholerae is a human pathogen its primary habitat are aquatic environments. In this environment, V. cholerae takes advantage of the abundance of zooplankton, whose chitinous exoskeletons provide a nutritious ...

Chitin Induces Natural Competence in Vibrio cholerae

Science, 2005
The mosaic-structured Vibrio cholerae genome points to the importance of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in the evolution of this human pathogen. We showed that V. cholerae can acquire new genetic material by natural transformation during growth on ...

Chitin-Induced Responses in the Moss Physcomitrella patens

2017
A MAP kinase pathway below a chitin receptor in the moss Physcomitrella patens induces immune responses including rapid growth inhibition, a novel fluorescence burst, and cell wall depositions. The molecular mechanisms producing these three responses are currently unknown but warrant further investigation in this simple model system.

Barley ADH-1 modulates susceptibility to Bgh and is involved in chitin-induced systemic resistance

Plant Physiology and Biochemistry, 2018
The plant primary energy metabolism is profoundly reorganized under biotic stress conditions and there is increasing evidence for a role of the fermentative pathway in biotic interactions. Previously we showed via transient gene silencing or overexpression a function of barley alcohol dehydrogenase 1 (HvADH-1) in the interaction of barley with the ...

Defense Against Pathogens: Structural Insights into the Mechanism of Chitin Induced Activation of Innate Immunity

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2017
Pattern recognition receptors on the plant cell surface mediate the recognition of microbe-associated molecular patterns, in a process which activates downstream immune signaling. These receptors are plasma membrane-localized kinases which need to be autophosphorylated to activate downstream responses.
