The molecular basis for recognition of bacterial ligands at equine TLR2, TLR1 and TLR6
TLR2 recognises bacterial lipopeptides and lipoteichoic acid, and forms heterodimers with TLR1 or TLR6. TLR2 is relatively well characterised in mice and humans, with published crystal structures of human TLR2/1/Pam3CSK4 and murine TLR2/6/Pam2CSK4. Equine TLR4 is activated by a different panel of ligands to human and murine TLR4, but less is known about species differences at TLR2. We therefore...
متن کاملCutting edge: role of Toll-like receptor 1 in mediating immune response to microbial lipoproteins.
The Toll-like receptor (TLR) family acts as pattern recognition receptors for pathogen-specific molecular patterns (PAMPs). TLR2 is essential for the signaling of a variety of PAMPs, including bacterial lipoprotein/lipopeptides, peptidoglycan, and GPI anchors. TLR6 associates with TLR2 and recognizes diacylated mycoplasmal lipopeptide along with TLR2. We report here that TLR1 associates with TL...
متن کاملIdentification of full length bovine TLR1 and functional characterization of lipopeptide recognition by bovine TLR2/1 heterodimer
Toll-like receptors (TLR) are highly conserved pattern recognition receptors of the innate immune system. Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) recognizes bacterial lipopeptides in a heterodimeric complex with TLR6 or TLR1, thereby discriminating between di- or triacylated lipopeptides, respectively. Previously, we found that HEK293 cells transfected with bovine TLR2 (boTLR2) were able to respond to diac...
متن کاملRole of TLR1, TLR2 and TLR6 in the modulation of intestinal inflammation and Candida albicans elimination
BACKGROUND Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are the major pattern recognition receptors that mediate sensing of a wide range of microorganisms. TLR2 forms heterodimers with either TLR1 or TLR6, broadening its ligand diversity against pathogens. TLR1, TLR2 and TLR6 have been implicated in the recognition of Candida albicans, an opportunistic fungal pathogen that colonizes the gastrointestinal tract. I...
متن کاملAssociation between Toll-like receptor gene cluster (TLR6, TLR1, and TLR10) and prostate cancer.
BACKGROUND Chronic inflammation may be a risk factor for prostate cancer. Previously, we found significant associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and haplotypes in Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 and the risk of prostate cancer. TLR6, TLR1, and TLR10 are also involved in the pathogen-mediated inflammation pathway. A Swedish study observed associations between sequence variants i...
