Popis: | Pathogens produce effectors to overcome plant immunity, thereby threatening crop yields and global food security. Large-scale interactomic studies have revealed that pathogens from different kingdoms of life target common plant proteins during infection, the so-called effector hubs. These hubs often play central roles in numerous plant processes through their ability to interact with multiple plant proteins. This ability arises partly from the presence of intrinsically disordered domains (IDDs) in their structure. Here, we highlight the role of the TEOSINTE BRANCHED1/CYCLOIDEA/PROLIFERATING CELL FACTOR (TCP) and JASMONATE-ZIM DOMAIN (JAZ) transcription regulator families as plant signaling and effector hubs. We consider different evolutionary hypotheses to rationalize the existence of diverse effectors sharing common targets and the possible role of IDDs in this interaction. |
