Lysin Motif (LysM) Proteins: Interlinking Manipulation of Plant Immunity and Fungi
The proteins with lysin motif (LysM) are carbohydrate-binding protein modules that play a critical role in the host-pathogen interactions. The plant LysM proteins mostly function as pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that sense chitin to induce the plant’s immunity. In contrast, fungal LysM blocks...
