  2. Pathogen-associated molecular pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathogen-associated...

    Pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) are small molecular motifs conserved within a class of microbes, but not present in the host. [1] They are recognized by toll-like receptors (TLRs) and other pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) in both plants and animals. [ 2 ]

  3. CpG oligodeoxynucleotide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CpG_Oligodeoxynucleotide

    CpG motifs are considered pathogen-associated molecular patterns due to their abundance in microbial genomes but their rarity in vertebrate genomes. [2] The CpG PAMP is recognized by the pattern recognition receptor ( PRR ) Toll-Like Receptor 9 ( TLR9 ), which is constitutively expressed only in B cells and plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs ...

  4. Pattern recognition receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_recognition_receptor

    They are proteins expressed mainly by cells of the innate immune system, such as dendritic cells, macrophages, monocytes, neutrophils, as well as by epithelial cells, [3] [4] to identify two classes of molecules: pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), which are associated with microbial pathogens, and damage-associated molecular ...

  5. MAPK networks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAPK_networks

    There are multiple pathways, but one pathway that plants have been able to develop is a self-defense mechanism by recognize pathogens through pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) via cell surface-located pathogen-recognition receptors.

  6. NOD-like receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOD-like_receptor

    Structure and domain organization of NOD2, a human NOD-like receptor. The nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptors, or NOD-like receptors (NLRs) (also known as nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptors), [1] are intracellular sensors of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) that enter the cell via phagocytosis or pores, and damage-associated molecular patterns ...

  7. CD14 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD14

    CD14 (cluster of differentiation 14) is a human protein made mostly by macrophages as part of the innate immune system. [5] [6] It helps to detect bacteria in the body by binding lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP).

  8. Fungal effectors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fungal_effectors

    In the first stages of infection, conserved molecules from the fungal pathogen's cell wall, such as polysaccharides and chitin, are recognised by membrane-localised pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) on the plant host's side. Such conserved molecules are generally described as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) or microbe ...

  9. Damage-associated molecular pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damage-associated...

    In contrast to the noninfectious inflammatory response produced by DAMPs, pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) initiate and perpetuate the infectious pathogen-induced inflammatory response. [6] Many DAMPs are nuclear or cytosolic proteins with defined intracellular function that are released outside the cell following tissue injury. [7]
