Effector. Definition. noun, plural: effectors. (biochemistry) A molecule that binds to a protein and affects the function of that protein. (physiology) An organ, a gland, or a muscle that can respond and becomes active in response to a stimulus (e.g. nerve impulse).upplement. In biochemistry, an effector is that molecule that binds to a specific protein, and regulates the latter's biological activity. An effector molecule acts as a ligand that is capable of increasing or decreasing the activity of that protein.
Once translocated into the plant cytoplasm, effectors can traffic to different subcellular compartments, including organelles and various membrane compartments. A large number of effectors accumulate in the plant nucleus (see also Caillaud et al. 2012, this volume).ffector helpers and targets are host proteins that are usurped or manipulated by the invading organism to enable the effectors to function and establish a state of effector-triggered host susceptibility. Hence, collectively they are both host susceptibility factors.
