nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptor complex
A protein complex that contains one or more nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) proteins and functions as an intracellular innate immune receptor. Upon activation by pathogen effectors or danger signals, the complex oligomerizes with adaptor and effector proteins to trigger downstream immune responses including programmed cell death.
