The Arabidopsis effector-triggered immunity landscape is conserved in oilseed crops. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2022 AbstractThe bacterial phytopathogen Pseudomonas syringae causes disease on a wide array of plants, including the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana and its agronomically important relatives in the Brassicaceae family. To cause disease, P. syringae delivers effector proteins into plant cells through a type III secretion system.

Effector-triggered immunity and pathogen sensing in metazoans. [PDF]
Nat Microbiol, 2020 Microbial pathogens possess an arsenal of strategies to invade their hosts, evade immune defences and promote infection. In particular, bacteria use virulence factors, such as secreted toxins and effector proteins, to manipulate host cellular processes and establish a replicative niche.

Effector triggered immunity. [PDF]
Virulence, 2014 Pathogenic bacteria produce virulence factors called effectors, which are important components of the infection process. Effectors aid in pathogenesis by facilitating bacterial attachment, pathogen entry into or exit from the host cell, immunoevasion, and immunosuppression.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Fungal chitin, as a typical microorganism-associated molecular pattern (PAMP), was recognized by plant LysM-containing protein to induce immunity called pattern-triggered immunity (PTI).

UnZIPping Mechanisms of Effector-Triggered Immunity in Animals [PDF]
Cell Host & Microbe, 2012 The mechanisms by which epithelial cells distinguish pathogens from commensal microbes have long puzzled us. Now, McEwan et al. (2012) and Dunbar et al. (2012), in this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, demonstrate that in C. elegans, microbial toxin-induced inhibition of host cellular functions, especially blockade of protein translation, activates the ...

A holistic view on plant effector-triggered immunity presented as an iceberg model. [PDF]
Cell Mol Life Sci, 2020 The immune system of plants is highly complex. It involves pattern-triggered immunity (PTI), which is signaled and manifested through branched multi-step pathways. To counteract this, pathogen effectors target and inhibit individual PTI steps.

Engineering effector‐triggered immunity in rice: Obstacles and perspectives
Plant, Cell & Environment, 2022 AbstractImproving rice immunity is one of the most effective approaches to reduce yield loss by biotic factors, with the aim of increasing rice production by 2050 amidst limited natural resources. Triggering a fast and strong immune response to pathogens, effector‐triggered immunity (ETI) has intrigued scientists to intensively study and utilize the ...

RhoGTPases--NODes for effector-triggered immunity in animals. [PDF]
Cell Res, 2013 A recent study published in Nature by Keestra and colleagues addresses how the immune system detects the pathogenic potential of microbes and provides evidence that one strategy involves NOD1, which monitors the activation state of the RhoGTPases that are targeted by virulence effectors produced by pathogenic microbes.

Geminiviral Triggers and Suppressors of Plant Antiviral Immunity
Microorganisms, 2021 Geminiviruses are circular single-stranded DNA plant viruses encapsidated into geminate virion particles, which infect many crops and vegetables and, hence, represent significant agricultural constraints worldwide.
