Summary Offering insight into areas of immunology, this book explains the roles of nucleic acids in immunity, describing the mechanism of discrimination based on pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs). It discusses how these PRRs recognize and respond to pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by activating specific signaling pathways
