Abstract
The metazoan gut harbors microbial communities on its mucosal surfaces, yet the mechanisms by which gut immunity tolerates symbiotic and commensal bacteria while eliminating pathogens is insufficiently understood. In a recent Cell paper, Lee et al. (2013) show that bacterial uracil, not secreted by commensal bacteria, triggers dual oxidase-dependent immunity.Entities:
