High impact information on CG4049

  • Toll-like receptors (TLRs), which recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns, and members of the pro-inflammatory interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R) family, share homologies in their cytoplasmic domains called Toll/IL-1R/plant R gene homology (TIR) domains [1].
  • EDS1, an essential component of R gene-mediated disease resistance in Arabidopsis has homology to eukaryotic lipases [2].
  • This R gene subclass encodes a combined nucleotide-binding domain/leucine rich region (NBD/LRR) motif [3].
