SECTION COVER FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF MOLECULAR BIOLOGY: Toll-like<br />
receptors (TLRs) recognize various pathogen-associated molecules and play an important role in<br />
innate immune responses. <strong>The</strong> human TLR3 recognizes double-stranded RNA from viruses and initiates<br />
an intracellular signaling pathway through the interaction of TIR domains of TLR3 and the<br />
adaptor molecule TRIF. <strong>The</strong> proposed dimer of the TLR3 ectodomain is displayed on the membrane<br />
surface with double-stranded RNA from viruses. <strong>The</strong> crystal structure was determined by Jungwoo<br />
Choe, Ph.D., in the laboratory of Ian A. Wilson, D.Phil.
