MeSH definition : 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.;
MeSH synonym : receptors, toll-like; toll-like receptor; receptor, toll-like; toll like receptor; receptors, toll like; toll like receptors;
MeSH annotation : general; prefer specifics;
