The cytoplasmic 'linker region' in Toll-like receptor 3 controls receptor localization and signaling.
Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) recognizes double-stranded RNA and transmits signals to activate NF-kappaB and the interferon (IFN)-beta promoter via the newly identified adaptor, TICAM-1. The extracellular LRR domain of TLR3 is engaged in the ligand recognition, while the intracellular TIR domain is crucial for the adaptor binding and signal transduction upon ligand stimulation. Here, we analyzed ...
متن کاملToll-Like Receptor 9 in Breast Cancer
Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) is a cellular DNA receptor of the innate immune system. DNA recognition via TLR9 results in an inflammatory reaction, which eventually also activates a Th1-biased adaptive immune attack. In addition to cells of the immune system, TLR9 mRNA and protein are also widely expressed in breast cancer cell lines and in clinical breast cancer specimens. Although synthetic TLR...
متن کاملTollML: a database of toll-like receptor structural motifs.
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play a key role in the innate immune system. TLRs recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns and initiate an intracellular kinase cascade to induce an immediate defensive response. During recent years TLRs have become the focus of tremendous research interest. A central repository for the growing amount of relevant TLR sequence information has been created. Neve...
متن کاملToll-like receptor 9-dependent immune activation by unmethylated CpG motifs in Aspergillus fumigatus DNA.
Phagocytic defenses are critical for effective host defenses against the opportunistic fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus. Previous studies found that following challenge with A. fumigatus, Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) knockout mice survived longer than wild-type mice. However, the mechanism responsible was not defined. Here we demonstrate that A. fumigatus contains unmethylated CpG sequences...
متن کاملBinding specificity of Toll-like receptor cytoplasmic domains.
MyD88 participates in signal transduction by binding to the cytoplasmic Toll/IL-1 receptor (TIR) domains of activated Toll-like receptors (TLR). Yeast two-hybrid experiments reveal that the TIR domains of human TLR differ in their ability to associate with MyD88: The TIR of TLR2 binds to MyD88 but the TIR of the closely related TLR1, 6, or 10 do not. Using chimeric TIR domains, we define the cr...
