MeSH Heading: Toll-Like Receptors
Tree Number(s): D12.776.543.750.705.910.500
Unique ID: D051193
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D051193
Annotation: general; prefer specifics
Scope Note: A family of pattern recognition receptors characterized by an extracellular leucine-rich domain and a cytoplasmic domain that share homology with the INTERLEUKIN 1 RECEPTOR and the DROSOPHILA toll protein. Following pathogen recognition, toll-like receptors recruit and activate a variety of SIGNAL TRANSDUCING ADAPTOR PROTEINS.
Entry Term(s): Receptors, Toll-Like; Toll-Like Receptor
