Similar structures but different roles - An updated perspective on TLR structures
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that recognize conserved structures in pathogens, trigger innate immune responses and prime antigen-specific adaptive immunity. Elucidation of crystal structures of TLRs interacting with their ligands such as TLR1-2 with triacylated...
