Detection of enteric pathogens by the nodosome

Highlights • NOD1 and NOD2 monitor the integrity of the cytosol to detect danger signals. • Excessive activation of small Rho GTPases is a danger signal detected by NOD1. • NOD1 detects virulence factors of enteric pathogens that activate small Rho GTPases. • Excessive activation of small Rho GTPase...

Summary:Highlights • NOD1 and NOD2 monitor the integrity of the cytosol to detect danger signals. • Excessive activation of small Rho GTPases is a danger signal detected by NOD1. • NOD1 detects virulence factors of enteric pathogens that activate small Rho GTPases. • Excessive activation of small Rho GTPases is a danger signal in insects and mammals.
