Biomedical Science & Research Journals | A Synopsis of Different Plant LRR-RLKs Structures and Functionality
As sessile organism plants are exposed to multiple
environmental threats. Unlike animals, they lack mobile immune
cells. Hence, to safeguard themselves from a range of pathogens,
plants come by a multi-tiered innate immune system [1,2]. The
first line of defense mechanism is the recognition of the pathogen
by detecting pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) or
microbial-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) which are either
extracellularly exposed or secreted extremely conserved pathogen-
derived molecules [1,3]. This recognition is achieved by a cognate
plant cell-surface pattern-recognition receptor (PRR). Once the
invading pathogen’s microbial signature ‘PAMP’ is recognized by
the PRR, the plant cell initiates signaling cascades via the mitogen-
activated protein kinase (MAPK). This first line of the plant defense
mechanism is referred to as pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) [4-
8].
