In this study, we show that the potato () pattern recognition receptor (PRR) NEMATODE-INDUCED LEUCINE-RICH REPEAT (LRR)-RLK1 (StNILR1) functions as a dual receptor, recognizing both nematode-associated molecular pattern ascaroside #18 (Ascr18) and plant hormone brassinosteroid (BR) to activate two different physiological outputs: pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) and BR response. Ascr18/BR-StNILR1 signaling requires the coreceptor potato BRASSINOSTEROID INSENSITIVE 1-ASSOCIATED RECEPTOR KINASE 1 (StBAK1) and perception of either ligand strengthens StNILR1 interaction with StBAK1 in plant cells. Significantly, the parasitically successful potato cyst nematode () utilizes the effector RHA1B, which is a functional ubiquitin ligase, to target StNILR1 for ubiquitination-mediated proteasome-dependent degradation, thereby countering Ascr18/BR-StNILR1-mediated PTI in potato and facilitating nematode parasitism. These findings broaden our understanding of PRR specificity and reveal a nematode parasitic mechanism that targets a PTI signaling pathway.
在这项研究中,我们表明,马铃薯()模式识别受体(PRR)线虫诱导亮氨酸丰富重复(LRR)-RLK1(StNILR1)作为双重受体,识别线虫相关分子模式阿曲霉素#18(Ascr18)和植物激素油菜素内酯(BR),以激活两种不同的生理输出:模式触发免疫(PTI)和 BR 反应。Ascr18/BR-StNILR1 信号需要马铃薯油菜素内酯不敏感 1 相关受体激酶 1(StBAK1)的核心受体,并且对任一配体的感知都会增强植物细胞中 StNILR1 与 StBAK1 的相互作用。重要的是,寄生成功的马铃薯胞囊线虫()利用效应因子 RHA1B,它是一种功能性泛素连接酶,靶向 StNILR1 进行泛素化介导的蛋白酶体依赖性降解,从而抵消 Ascr18/BR-StNILR1 介导的马铃薯 PTI,并促进线虫寄生。这些发现拓宽了我们对 PRR 特异性的理解,并揭示了一种线虫寄生机制,该机制针对 PTI 信号通路。
