MAP kinase signalling cascade in Arabidopsis innate immunity
Tsuneaki Asai,Guillaume Tena,Joulia Plotnikova,Matthew R. Willmann,Wan-Ling Chiu,Lourdes Gómez-Gómez,Thomas Boller,Frederick M. Ausubel,Jen Sheen +8 more
TL;DR: An Arabidopsis thaliana leaf cell system based on the induction of early-defence gene transcription by flagellin, a highly conserved component of bacterial flagella that functions as a PAMP in plants and mammals is developed, suggesting that signalling events initiated by diverse pathogens converge into a conserved MAPK cascade.
Journal ArticleDOI
FLS2: an LRR receptor-like kinase involved in the perception of the bacterial elicitor flagellin in Arabidopsis.
TL;DR: The identification of a new locus, FLS2, is described, which is ubiquitously expressed and encodes a putative receptor kinase and shares structural and functional homologies with known plant resistance genes and with components involved in the innate immune system of mammals and insects.
Journal ArticleDOI
A single locus determines sensitivity to bacterial flagellin in Arabidopsis thaliana
TL;DR: Peptides corresponding to the most conserved domain of eubacterial flagellin act as potent elicitors in cells of different plant species and dominance of the locus sensing flageLLin, termed FLS-1, suggests that it encodes an element which is important for the perception of the flagella signal.
Journal ArticleDOI
A global perspective on carotenoids: Metabolism, biotechnology, and benefits for nutrition and health
Manuel Rodríguez-Concepción,Javier Avalos,M. Luisa Bonet,Albert Boronat,Lourdes Gómez-Gómez,Dámaso Hornero-Méndez,M. Carmen Limón,Antonio J. Meléndez-Martínez,Begoña Olmedilla-Alonso,Andreu Palou,Joan Ribot,María Jesús Rodrigo,Lorenzo Zacarías,Changfu Zhu +13 more
TL;DR: This review, contributed by scientists of complementary disciplines related to carotenoid research, covers recent advances and provides a perspective on future directions on the subjects of carotENoid metabolism, biotechnology, and nutritional and health benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flagellin perception: a paradigm for innate immunity
TL;DR: Genetic analysis in Arabidopsis has shown that FLS2, which encodes a receptor-like kinase, is essential for flagellin perception, and FLS 2 shares homology with the TLR family, and TLR5 is responsible for flagescence perception in mammals.
