研究方向：

植物與微生物互作中幾丁質（chitooligosaccharides）與脂質幾丁質寡糖(lipochitooligosaccharides) 的分子識別機制。
 

植物與微生物在長期共進化過程中形成兩種截然不同的關系：有些微生物被植物識別為敵人，即病原菌，植物通過識別病原菌的保守結構以及分泌的效應因子，從而誘導天然免疫反應，進而限制病原菌的進一步擴展；相反，有些微生物被植物識別為朋友，即有益菌，植物關閉天然免疫反應，與微生物建立互利互惠的關系。因此植物與微生物關系的建立是由植物識別微生物信號分子決定的。本實驗室主要研究植物與微生物互作的識別機制，重點集中在植物區分病原菌和共生菌的分子機制，主要包括以下兩個項目： 

1）植物識別病原菌和共生菌脂多糖的分子機理。脂多糖俗稱為內毒素，是革蘭氏陰性菌細胞壁的主要成分。在病原細菌中，脂多糖是重要的病原相關分子模式，可以激活動植物細胞的先天免疫反應。然而根瘤菌的脂多糖被認為是侵染豆科植物形成根瘤所必須的。因此我們將進一步深入研究脂多糖分子在誘導植物先天免疫和介導共生中的作用機理。

2）豆科植物識別結瘤因子的進化機制。豆科植物與根瘤菌共生可以將大氣中的氮轉變為氨，為植物提供直接利用的氮源，這對減少化肥用量和農業的可持續發展有著非常重要的意義。建立這種共生關系的關鍵是豆科植物識別根瘤菌分泌的結瘤因子。豆科植物識別結瘤因子的受體與非豆科植物識別幾丁質和叢枝菌因子的受體密切相關，它們都屬于LysM蛋白家族，但幾丁質作為真菌的信號分子誘導植物免疫反應，叢枝菌因子介導大部分植物與叢枝菌共生。鑒于幾丁質、叢枝菌因子和結瘤因子結構上的相似性和受體的同源性，因此我們對比研究植物對幾種信號分子的識別，最終從分子上闡明豆科植物結瘤因子受體的進化機制。

科研成果：

1. 發現非豆科植物可以識別結瘤因子，但識別的結果是抑制植物的抗病反應。在根瘤形成過程中，結瘤因子是由LYK蛋白家族識別的。對擬南芥中LYK家族突變體的篩選發現，lyk3突變體中結瘤因子不能抑制抗病。這一結果證明，擬南芥lyk3是介導結瘤因子抑制抗病的關鍵基因，暗示著非豆科植物中存在根瘤菌結瘤因子的受體。

2. 發現了擬南芥中識別幾丁質的受體模式與豆科植物識別根瘤菌結瘤因子模式非常相似，它們都通過LYK蛋白家族識別，這為研究根瘤菌結瘤因子受體的生化機制提供了依據。非豆科植物的固氮研究一步一步推進，其前景也越來越明朗。

3. 根瘤菌結瘤因子的分子骨架與存在于真菌細胞壁中的幾丁質寡聚體很相似，梁巖發現，作為共生的信號分子，識別幾丁質寡聚糖類分子的受體可能起源于同一個祖先，幾丁質的受體識別模式可能是介導根瘤菌共生信號分子受體識別模式的起源。因而，在非豆科植物中研究幾丁質的信號轉導，將對改造非豆科植物識別結瘤因子有很重要的現實意義。
