<EDS1>, ENHANCED <Disease> SUSCEPTIBILITY 1, is a <plant immunity> signaling component that forms complexes with partner <proteins>, including <PAD4>. Such interactions connect particular immune-recognition pathways to changes in defence activity.
The pathway is not present unchanged in every <plant>. Comparative genomic work identified convergent losses of <EDS1>, <PAD4> and associated components, providing evidence for <coevolution> of an interacting molecular system.<EDS1 and PAD4 pathway-loss study by Erin L. Baggs and others>[Abstract, convergent losses and pathway coevolution]{ref}
