Comparative Characterization of Virulent and Less-Virulent Lasiodiplodia theobromae Isolates

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2023
Lasiodiplodia theobromae attacks over 500 plant species and is an important pathogen of tropical and subtropical fruit. Due to global warming and climate change, the incidence of disease associated with L. theobromae is rising.

IgG Subclasses and Allotypes: From Structure to Effector Functions

Frontiers in Immunology, 2014
Of the five immunoglobulin isotypes, immunoglobulin G (IgG) is most abundant in human serum. The four subclasses, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4, which are highly conserved, differ in their constant region, particularly in their hinges and upper CH2 domains.

Network Analysis Reveals a Common Host–Pathogen Interaction Pattern in Arabidopsis Immune Responses

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Many plant pathogens secrete virulence effectors into host cells to target important proteins in host cellular network. However, the dynamic interactions between effectors and host cellular network have not been fully understood.

Proteinaceous Effector Discovery and Characterization in Plant Pathogenic Colletotrichum Fungi

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Anthracnose caused by plant pathogenic Colletotrichum fungi results in large economic losses in field crop production worldwide. To aid the establishment of plant host infection, Colletotrichum pathogens secrete numerous effector proteins either in ...

C2c2 is a single-component programmable RNA-guided RNA-targeting CRISPR effector

Science, 2016
INTRODUCTION Almost all archaea and about half of bacteria possess clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)–CRISPR-associated genes (Cas) adaptive immune systems, which protect microbes against viruses and other foreign DNA.

Diversifying Selection in the Wheat Stem Rust Fungus Acts Predominantly on Pathogen-Associated Gene Families and Reveals Candidate Effectors

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Plant pathogens cause severe losses to crop plants and threaten global food production. One striking example is the wheat stem rust fungus, Puccinia graminis f. sp.

Effector-triggered post-translational modifications and their role in suppression of plant immunity

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2012
Plant-pathogen interactions feature complex signalling exchanges between host and microbes that ultimately determine association outcomes. Plants deploy Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRRs) to perceive Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns (PAMPs ...

Role of Recipient Susceptibility Factors During Contact-Dependent Interbacterial Competition

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Bacteria evolved multiple strategies to survive and develop optimal fitness in their ecological niche. They deployed protein secretion systems for robust and efficient delivery of antibacterial toxins into their target cells, therefore inhibiting their ...

Tumor-residing Batf3 dendritic cells are required for effector T cell trafficking and adoptive T cell therapy

Cancer Cell, 2017
Summary Effector T cells have the capability of recognizing and killing cancer cells. However, whether tumors can become immune-resistant through exclusion of effector T cells from the tumor microenvironment is not known.

Bacterial effector-involved temporal and spatial regulation by hijack of the host ubiquitin pathway

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2011
Ubiquitination is one of the most conserved post-translational modifications of proteins, and is involved in essential eukaryotic cellular processes.
