Endosomes as platforms for NOD-like receptor signaling

Cell Host Microbe. 2014 May 14;15(5):523-5. doi: 10.1016/j.chom.2014.05.001.

Abstract

The NOD-like receptors (NLRs) were among the first innate immune receptors discovered, yet a clear understanding of the basic principles underlying their mechanisms of action is lacking. Two recent studies provide important cell biological insights into the subcellular sites of NOD1- and NOD2-dependent signaling.
