Abstract Plants have intricate innate immune receptors that detect pathogens. Research has intensely focused on two receptor classes recognizing external and internal threats. Recent research identified a class of disease resistance proteins called tandem kinase (TKPs). We investigated RWT4, wheat TKP confers to the devastating fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae . established rice protoplast system, revealing RWT4 specifically recognizes AvrPWT4 effector, leading transcription defense genes...
Abstract Reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation is required for effective plant defense. Accumulation of the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) NADPH oxidase respiratory burst homolog D (RBOHD) regulated by phosphorylation a conserved C-terminal residue (T912) leading to ubiquitination RING E3 ligase Pbl13-interacting domain (PIRE). PIRE knockouts exhibit enhanced ROS production and resistance foliar pathogen Pseudomonas syringae. Here, we identified 170 homologs, which emerged in...
Abstract. Introduction : The Epstein–Barr virus transforms resting B cells into proliferating lymphoblastoid cells, the origin of cell lines. Method and results Our cDNA microarray analyses led to identification 232 up‐regulated 112 down‐regulated genes with more than a 3‐fold difference in lines compared cells. functional classification these exhibited distinct expression signature for proliferation, cycle an immune response. Among them, we verified differential several oncogenes such as...
