Common to many microbes
Absent from host tissues
PAMP Gram positive bacteria example?
peptidoglycans

lipopolysaccharide
PAMP virus example?
dsRNA
What are the signaling types of PRRs?
Describe location and examples.
Toll like receptors- membranous, wide variety of ligands
NOD like receptors- cytoplasmic, peptidoglycan
RIG 1 like receptors- cytoplasmic, viral dsRNA
Where are pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) found?
Cell surface
Cytoplasmic
Endosomal
Soluble
Where are TLRs 4 and 5 located and function?
plasma membrane
recognize bacterial, fungal, parasite wall components
TLRs 3, 7, 8, 9 location and function?
Endosomal membrane, recognize bacterial/viral RNA, DNA
