BTL2 phospho-switch surveils plant immunity

Dacheng Wang et al. Trends Plant Sci. 2023 Dec.

Abstract

BRASSINOSTEROID INSENSITIVE1-ASSOCIATED KINASE1 (BAK1) is a co-receptor involved in the recognition of pattern-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) via plasma membrane-localized pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). Absence of BAK1/SERK4 leads to the activation of autoimmunity in plants. Yu et al. recently showed that BAK-TO-LIFE 2 (BTL2) is required for the surveillance of BAK1/SERK4 integrity to maintain immune homeostasis.

Keywords: BAK1; BTL2; autoimmunity; peptide signaling.
