Second face: AVRcap1b blocks the stepwise assembly of a helper NLR resistosome. Same effector, different trick. Very sneaky potato blight business. science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

A plant pathogen effector blocks stepwise assembly of a helper NLR resistosome

An RXLR-LWY effector from Phytophthora infestans interferes with helper NLR resistosome assembly to suppress plant immunity.

So proud to see this story finally out!🎉 We added new data since our previous preprint—transgenic barley plants with an engineered immune receptor that fights off two fungal pathogens at once. Short 🧵and link to the original preprint thread👇 science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

The same classes of ligands can be perceived by distinct ectodomains. We discuss and summarize representative solved receptor-ligand/receptor structures to provide mechanistic insights into how diverse ectodomains sense different molecules.
