To counter this, plants have developed innate immunity mediated by Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRRs) that recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage- associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). PRRs activate Pattern-Triggered Immunity (PTI), a defence mechanism involving intricate cell-surface and intracellular receptors. The diverse ligand-binding ectodomains of PRRs, including leucine-rich repeats (LRRs) and lectin domains, facilitate the recognition of MAMPs and DAMPs. Pathogen resistance is mediated by a variety of PTI responses, including membrane depolarization, ROS production, and the induction of defence genes. An integral part of intracellular immunity is the Nucleotide-binding Oligomerization Domain, Leucine-rich Repeat proteins (NLRs) which recognize and respond to effectors in a potent manner. Enhanced understanding of PRRs, their ligands, and downstream signalling pathways has contributed to the identification of potential targets for genetically modified plants. By transferring PRRs across plant species, it is possible to create broad-spectrum resistance, potentially offering innovative solutions for plant protection and global food security. The purpose of this chapter is to provide an update on PRRs involved in disease resistance, clarify the mechanisms by which PRRs recognize ligands to form active receptor complexes and present various applications of PRRs and PTI in disease resistance management for plants.</p>","PeriodicalId":7376,"journal":{"name":"Advances in protein chemistry and structural biology","volume":"140 ","pages":"525-555"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140955683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Immunometabolism, an interdisciplinary field, seeks to elucidate how metabolic processes impact the immune system. In the context of viral infections, macrophages are often exploited by viruses for their replication and propagation. These infections trigger significant metabolic reprogramming within macrophages and polarization of distinct M1 and M2 phenotypes. This metabolic reprogramming involves alterations in standard- pathways such as the Krebs cycle, glycolysis, lipid metabolism, the pentose phosphate pathway, and amino acid metabolism. Disruptions in the balance of key intermediates like spermidine, itaconate, and citrate within these pathways contribute to the severity of viral diseases. In this chapter, we describe the manipulation of metabolic pathways by viruses and how they crosstalk between signaling pathways to evade the immune system. This intricate interplay often involves the upregulation or downregulation of specific metabolites, making these molecules potential biomarkers for diseases like HIV, HCV, and SARS-CoV. Techniques such as Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and Mass Spectrometry, are the evaluative ways to analyze these metabolites.

The primary goals of functional proteomics, a developing area of study in the realm of proteomic science, are the elucidation of the biological function of unidentified proteins and the molecular description of cellular systems at the molecular level. RNA viruses have emerged as the cause of several human infectious diseases with large morbidity and fatality rates. The introduction of high-throughput sequencing tools and genetic-based screening approaches over the last few decades has enabled researchers to find previously unknown and perplexing elements of RNA virus replication and pathogenesis on a scale never feasible before.

The isoforms have similar translation functionality, but show differences in spatial organization and participation in various processes, such as oncogenesis and virus reproduction. The differences may be due to their ability to interact with isoform-specific partner proteins. We used the identified sets of eEF1A1 or eEF1A2 partner proteins to identify cell complexes and/or processes specific to one particular isoform. As a result, we found isoform-specific interactions reflecting the involvement of different eEF1A isoforms in different cellular processes, including actin-related, chromatin-remodeling, ribonuclease H2, adenylyl cyclase, and Cul3-RING ubiquitin ligase complexes as well as initiation of mitochondrial transcription. An essential by-product of our analysis is the elucidation of a number of cellular processes beyond protein biosynthesis, where both isoforms appear to participate such as large ribosomal subunit biogenesis, mRNA splicing, DNA mismatch repair, 26S proteasome activity, P-body and exosomes formation, protein targeting to the membrane. This information suggests that a relatively high content of eEF1A in the cell may be necessary not only to maintain efficient translation, but also to ensure its participation in various cellular processes, where some roles of eEF1A have not yet been described.

Immunotherapy involves boosting the immune system to kill cancer cells, and nowadays, is a major emerging treatment for cancer. With the advances in our understanding of the immunology of cancer, there has been an explosion of studies to develop and evaluate therapies that engage the immune system in the fight against cancer. Nevertheless, conventional therapies have been effective in reducing tumor burden and prolonging patient life, but the overall efficacy of these treatment regimens has been somewhat mixed and often with severe side effects. A common reason for this is the activation of molecular mechanisms that lead to apoptosis of anti-tumor effector cells. The competency to block tumor escape entirely depends on our understanding of the cellular and molecular pathways which operate in the tumor microenvironment. Numerous strategies have been developed for activating the immune system to kill tumor cells.
