Bacterial flagellin is a potent host immune activator. Parys et al. (2021) and Colaianni et al. (2021) dissected effects of flagellin epitope variants on host immune detection and bacterial motility. They report in this issue of Cell Host & Microbe that Arabidopsis-associated bacterial microbiota differentially evolved flg22 variants that allow tunability between motility and defense activation.
细菌鞭毛蛋白是一种有效的宿主免疫激活剂。Parys 等人(2021 年)和 Colaianni 等人(2021 年)剖析了鞭毛蛋白表位变体对宿主免疫检测和细菌运动性的影响。他们在本期《细胞宿主与微生物》中报告称,拟南芥相关的细菌微生物组差异进化出了 flg22 变体,这些变体可在运动性和防御激活之间实现可调性。
