Sequential Transphosphorylation of the BRI1/BAK1 Receptor Kinase Complex Impacts Early Events in Brassinosteroid Signaling

Reads0

TLDR
A sequential transphosphorylation model in which BRI1 controls signaling specificity by direct BR binding followed by substrate phosphorylation is proposed, which suggests both conservation and distinct differences between the molecular mechanisms regulating phosphorylated-dependent kinase activation in plant and animal receptor kinases.

Innate immunity in plants : an arms race between pattern recognition receptors in plants and effectors in microbial pathogens

TL;DR: It turns out that the important contribution of PTI to disease resistance is masked by pathogen virulence effectors that have evolved to suppress it.
Journal ArticleDOI

A receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase, BIK1, associates with a flagellin receptor complex to initiate plant innate immunity.

TL;DR: The receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase BIK1 is identified that is rapidly phosphorylated upon flagellin perception, depending on both FLS2 and BAK1, and is an essential component in MAMP signal transduction, which links the MAMP receptor complex to downstream intracellular signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Arabidopsis NPR1 Protein Is a Receptor for the Plant Defense Hormone Salicylic Acid

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that NPR1 directly binds SA, but not inactive structural analogs, with an affinity similar to that of other hormone-receptor interactions and consistent with in vivo Arabidopsis SA concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Arabidopsis Leucine-Rich Repeat Receptor–Like Kinases BAK1/SERK3 and BKK1/SERK4 Are Required for Innate Immunity to Hemibiotrophic and Biotrophic Pathogens

TL;DR: This work demonstrates that the leucine-rich receptor kinases EFR and FLS2 form a ligand-induced complex with several LRR-RKs that belong to the SERK subfamily, and reveals that BAK1 and BKK1 contribute to disease resistance against the hemibiotrophic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae and the obligate biotrophic oomycete Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis.

Plant pattern recognition receptor complexes at the plasma membrane.

TL;DR: Recent studies describing the molecular interactions and protein modifications that occur between PRRs and their regulatory proteins have provided important mechanistic insight into how plants avoid infection and achieve immunity.

Floral dip: a simplified method for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of Arabidopsis thaliana

TL;DR: The modified method should facilitate high-throughput transformation of Arabidopsis for efforts such as T-DNA gene tagging, positional cloning, or attempts at targeted gene replacement.

TGF-beta signal transduction.

TL;DR: The transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) family of growth factors control the development and homeostasis of most tissues in metazoan organisms and mutations in these pathways are the cause of various forms of human cancer and developmental disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Conformational Plasticity of Protein Kinases

TL;DR: Crystal structures of inactive kinases have revealed a remarkable plasticity in the kinase domain that allows the adoption of distinct conformations in response to interactions with specific regulatory domains or proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

A flagellin-induced complex of the receptor FLS2 and BAK1 initiates plant defence

TL;DR: BAK1 is shown to have a functional role in PRR-dependent signalling, which initiates innate immunity, and evidence is provided that FLS2 and BAK1 form a complex in vivo, in a specific ligand-dependent manner, within the first minutes of stimulation with flagellin.

A Putative Leucine-Rich Repeat Receptor Kinase Involved in Brassinosteroid Signal Transduction

TL;DR: The identification of 18 Arabidopsis dwarf mutants that are unable to respond to exogenously added brassinosteroid, a phenotype that might be expected for brass inosteroid signaling mutants.
