Exploration of Pattern Recognition Receptor Agonists as Candidate Adjuvants [PDF]
Adjuvants are used to maximize the potency of vaccines by enhancing immune reactions. Components of adjuvants include pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-associate molecular patterns (DAMPs) that are agonists for innate immune ...

Genotyping-by-sequencing-based identification of Arabidopsis pattern recognition receptor RLP32 recognizing proteobacterial translation initiation factor IF1 [PDF]
Pattern-triggered immunity is activated by recognition of microbe-derived structures by host pattern recognition receptors. Here the authors use a genotype-by sequencing approach to show that bacterial translation initiation factor 1 triggers PTI in ...

NLRP11 is a pattern recognition receptor for bacterial lipopolysaccharide in the cytosol of human macrophages. [PDF]
Endotoxin - bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) - is a driver of the lethal infection sepsis through activation of innate immune responses. When delivered to the cytosol of macrophages, LPS (cLPS) induces the assembly of an inflammasome that contains ...

Evolutionary gain and loss of a plant pattern-recognition receptor for HAMP recognition [PDF]
As a first step in innate immunity, pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) recognize the distinct pathogen and herbivore-associated molecular patterns and mediate activation of immune responses, but specific steps in the evolution of new PRR sensing ...

Regulation of pattern recognition receptor signaling by palmitoylation [PDF]
Summary: Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), consisting of Toll-like receptors, RIG-I-like receptors, cytosolic DNA sensors, and NOD-like receptors, sense exogenous pathogenic molecules and endogenous damage signals to maintain physiological ...

The activating receptor NKG2D is an anti-fungal pattern recognition receptor [PDF]
NKG2D is a central activating receptor involved in target recognition and killing by Natural Killer and CD8+ T cells. The known role of NKG2D is to recognize a family of self-induced stress ligands that are upregulated on stressed cells such as cancerous

RIG-I: a multifunctional protein beyond a pattern recognition receptor
It was widely known that retinoic acid inducible gene I (RIG-I) functions as a cytosolic pattern recognition receptor that initiates innate antiviral immunity by detecting exogenous viral RNAs.
