Viral effectors trigger innate immunity across the tree of life
Descripción general
Resumen del artículo
This review explores how viruses manipulate host cell pathways in similar ways across all domains of life (bacteria, plants, animals), triggering what's called "effector-triggered immunity." It highlights how viral infection disrupts key processes like transcription, protein function, and stress responses, and how these disruptions act as warning signals for the immune system.
