    molecules on pathogens recognized by the immune system

    Pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) are molecules found on the surface of pathogens like bacteria, viruses, and fungi that are recognized by the immune system. These patterns are essential for the immune system to identify and respond to infections, as they trigger an immune response by binding to specific receptors on immune cells, such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs).
