Effector-triggered immunity and pathogen sensing in metazoans. [PDF]
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.

Bioinformatic and functional characterisation of Globodera pallida effector genes [PDF]
Pathogens secrete molecules, termed effectors, to manipulate their host to the benefit of the pathogen. Effectors of plant parasitic nematodes are predicted to have a range of functions such as facilitating invasion, initiation and maintenance of the ...

Effector triggered immunity. [PDF]
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.

Harnessing Effector-Triggered Immunity for Durable Disease Resistance. [PDF]
Genetic control of plant diseases has traditionally included the deployment of single immune receptors with nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) domain architecture. These NLRs recognize corresponding pathogen effector proteins inside plant cells, resulting in effector-triggered immunity (ETI).

UnZIPping Mechanisms of Effector-Triggered Immunity in Animals [PDF]
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 ...

Engineering effector‐triggered immunity in rice: Obstacles and perspectives
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 ...
