A somato-cognitive action network alternates with effector regions in motor cortex

open access: yesNature, 2023
Functional MRI studies across ages show that the classic homunculus of the motor cortex in humans is in fact discontinuous, alternating with action control-linked regions termed the somato-cognitive action network.

Prediction of effector protein structures from fungal phytopathogens enables evolutionary analyses

open access: yesNature Microbiology, 2023
Evolutionary analysis guided by predicted structures of AlphaFold 2 elucidates novel aspects of rapidly evolving pathogen effectors from fungal phytopathogens. Elucidating the similarity and diversity of pathogen effectors is critical to understand their

FIRE Mimics a 14-3-3–Binding Motif to Promote Phytophthora palmivora Infection

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2023
The oomycete Phytophthora palmivora infects a wide range of tropical crops worldwide. Like other filamentous plant pathogens, it secretes effectors to colonize plant tissues.

Juvenile Spider Mites Induce Salicylate Defenses, but Not Jasmonate Defenses, Unlike Adults

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
When plants detect herbivores they strengthen their defenses. As a consequence, some herbivores evolved the means to suppress these defenses. Research on induction and suppression of plant defenses usually makes use of particular life stages of ...

The Biological Roles of Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici Effectors during Infection of Wheat

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst) is the causative agent of wheat stripe rust, which can lead to a significant loss in annual wheat yields. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a deeper comprehension of the basic mechanisms underlying Pst ...

Differentiation of Effector CD4 T Cell Populations

open access: yesAnnual Review of Immunology, 2010
CD4 T cells play critical roles in mediating adaptive immunity to a variety of pathogens. They are also involved in autoimmunity, asthma, and allergic responses as well as in tumor immunity.

Bioinformatic Detection of Positive Selection Pressure in Plant Pathogens: The Neutral Theory of Molecular Sequence Evolution in Action

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The genomes of plant pathogenic fungi and oomycetes are often exposed to strong positive selection pressure. During speciation, shifts in host range and preference can lead to major adaptive changes.
