Before invaders can be stopped, they must first be detected, and this is accomplished by pattern recognition receptors located on the surface of plant cells. The ability of these receptors to detect ...

Innate immune sensors—known as pattern recognition receptors (PRRs)—detect specific molecular components of bacterial or viral intruders. The PRRs forward the signals which results in the production ...

AlphaFold has been used to predict how targeted immune receptor engineering could lead to increased disease resistance in plants. Scientists at the University of California, Davis (CA, USA), have ...

Discovered in 1964 by Anthony Epstein, Yvonne Barr, and Bert Achong, the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has intrigued tumor virologists due to its unique behavior. Typically, EBV establishes a lifelong, ...
