The role of the C-terminal D0 domain of flagellin in activation of Toll like receptor 5.
Flagellin is a wide-spread bacterial virulence factor sensed by the membrane-bound Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) and by the intracellular NAIP5/NLRC4 inflammasome receptor. TLR5 recognizes a conserved region within the D1 domain of flagellin, crucial for the interaction between subunits in the flagell...
