The Bifunctional Plant Receptor, OsCERK1, Regulates Both Chitin-Triggered Immunity and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis in Rice
Kana Miyata,Toshinori Kozaki,Yusuke Kouzai,Kenjirou Ozawa,Kazuo Ishii,Erika Asamizu,Yoshihiro Okabe,Yosuke Umehara,Ayano Miyamoto,Yoshihiro Kobae,Kohki Akiyama,Hanae Kaku,Yoko Nishizawa,Naoto Shibuya,Tomomi Nakagawa +14 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the symbiotic function of ancestral CERK1 in AM symbiosis enabled the molecular evolution to leguminous NFR1 and resulted in the establishment of legume-rhizobia symbiosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Targeted Gene Disruption of OsCERK1 Reveals Its Indispensable Role in Chitin Perception and Involvement in the Peptidoglycan Response and Immunity in Rice
Yusuke Kouzai,Susumu Mochizuki,Keisuke Nakajima,Yoshitake Desaki,Masahiro Hayafune,Hideo Miyazaki,Naoki Yokotani,Kenjirou Ozawa,Eiichi Minami,Hanae Kaku,Naoto Shibuya,Yoko Nishizawa +11 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that OsCERK1 is indispensable for chitin perception and participates in innate immunity in rice, and also mediates the peptidoglycan response.
Journal ArticleDOI
CEBiP is the major chitin oligomer-binding protein in rice and plays a main role in the perception of chitin oligomers.

TL;DR: Affinity-labeling analysis using biotinylated N-acetylchitooctaose demonstrated that CEBiP is the major CE-binding protein in rice cultured cells and leaves, which was consistent with the result that the response to CE in cebip cells was greatly diminished.
Patent
Gene related to regeneration ability of plants and uses thereof
TL;DR: In this paper, a regeneration-related gene was successfully cloned using differential display method using a set of culture cells derived from Sasanishiki and Koshihikari lines.
