Unfolding Plant Defence: Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Signalling at the Plant‐Pathogen Interface

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response, a conserved proteostasis network, has emerged as a central hub that reprograms plant immunity during pathogen attack. This review synthesises how plants harness ER‐stress signalling to mount multilayered defences and how pathogens have evolved counterstrategies to subvert these pathways.

The cloning , expression and characterisation of bacterial chitin-binding proteins from pseudomonas aeruginosa , serratia marcescens, photorhabdus luminescens and photorhabdus asymbiotica. [PDF]

, 2011
It is well recognised that most proteins are subject to post translational modifications and that these modifications can have specific effects on the biological properties and functions of these proteins.

Insights Into the Role of Lysine Acetylation of Non‐Histone Proteins in Plant Immunity

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant immunity is regulated by numerous transcriptional and posttranslational mechanisms. Among these, lysine acetylation, which is controlled by lysine acetyltransferases (KATs) and lysine deacetylases (KDACs), has been extensively studied, particularly in the context of epigenetic regulation through histone acetylation.

Bacterial Effector HopF2 Suppresses Arabidopsis Innate Immunity at the Plasma Membrane

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2011
Many bacterial pathogens inject a cocktail of effector proteins into host cells through type III secretion systems. These effectors act in concert to modulate host physiology and immune signaling, thereby promoting pathogenicity.

Chitin in Allergic Immunity [PDF]

, 2007
Allergic and parasitic helminth immunity is characterized by infiltration of tissues with IL-4- and IL-13-expressing cells, including Th2 cells, eosinophils and basophils.

A holin and an endopeptidase are essential for chitinolytic protein secretion in Serratia marcescens [PDF]

, 2014
Pathogenic bacteria adapt to their environment and manipulate the biochemistry of hosts by secretion of effector molecules. Serratia marcescens is an opportunistic pathogen associated with healthcare-acquired infections and is a prolific secretor of ...

A Non‐Host Pathogen Elicitor Induces Blast Resistance Mediated by OsNAC78‐Pir7b Module in Rice

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plants exhibit broad‐spectrum and persistent resistance induced by non‐host pathogens. Previous studies have found that syringolin A secreted by Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae can activate the expression of defense‐related gene Pir7b in non‐host rice, but the underlying mechanism remains ambiguous.

Arabidopsis DXO1‐ and RNMT1‐Mediated m7G Capping of mRNA Modulates ABA Response

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eukaryotic mRNA carries an N7‐methylguanosine (m⁷G) 5′ cap that is essential for mRNA stability and function. Although traditionally viewed as a constitutive process, m⁷G capping is increasingly recognized as dynamically regulated to control gene expression in response to environmental stimuli.

Signaling of Plant Defense Mediated by Receptor-like Kinases, Receptor-like Cytoplasmic Protein Kinases and MAPKs Triggered by Fungal Chitin in Horticultural Crops

Horticulturae
Fresh horticultural products are economically significant foods that are highly demanded by consumers worldwide; however, they are highly perishable and susceptible to deterioration by fungi, which contribute to their short shelf-life and cause ...
