Abstract
The "sensor domains" of plant NLR proteins: more than decoys?
Highlights
Specialty section: This article was submitted to Plant-Microbe Interaction, a section of the journal Frontiers in Plant Science
Given that effectors can act on multiple host targets, the specific protein that mediates recognition by the NLR may not be the effector’s operative target and may have evolved to function as a decoy dedicated to pathogen detection
This “decoy” model contrasts with the “guard” model in which the NLR perceives the effector via its action on its operative target (Van Der Hoorn and Kamoun, 2008)
Summary
Specialty section: This article was submitted to Plant-Microbe Interaction, a section of the journal Frontiers in Plant Science. NLRs are intracellular multidomain proteins that recognize pathogen-derived effectors either directly or indirectly (Jones and Dangl, 2006; Van Der Hoorn and Kamoun, 2008; Dodds and Rathjen, 2010; Cesari et al, 2014).
