DAMPs are signaling molecules synthesized by plants or released from hostcellular structures (e.g., plant cell walls) upon pathogen infection or wounding. Despite thehypothesized important role of plant cell wall-derived DAMPs in plant-pathogeninteractions, a very limited number of these DAMPs are well characterized. Recent workdemonstrated that pectin-enriched cell wall fractions extracted from the cell wall mutantimpaired in Arabidopsis Response Regulator 6 (arr6), that showed altered diseaseresistance to several pathogens, triggered more intense immune responses than thoseactivated by similar cell wall fractions from wild-type plants. It was hypothesized that arr6cell wall fractions could be differentially enriched in DAMPs. In this work, we describe thecharacterization of the previous immune-active fractions of arr6 showing the highesttriggering capacities upon further fractionation by chromatographic means. Theseanalyses pointed to a role of pentose-based oligosaccharides triggering plant immuneresponses. The characterization of several pentose-based oligosaccharide structuresrevealed that b-1,4-xylooligosaccharides of specific degrees of polymerization andcarrying arabinose decorations are sensed as DAMPs by plants. Moreover, thepentasaccharide 33-a-L-arabinofuranosyl-xylotetraose (XA3XX) was found as a highlyactive DAMP structure triggering strong immune responses in Arabidopsis thaliana andenhancing crop disease resistance.
