The juxtamembrane domains ofArabidopsisCERK1, BAK1, and FLS2 play a conserved role in chitin‐induced signaling [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, 2019
SummaryArabidopsis thaliana CERK1 is an essential receptor‐like kinase in the chitin signal transduction pathway. The juxtamembrane (JM) domain of CERK1 regulates the kinase activity of this receptor. Here we demonstrate that the JM domains of LysM‐RLKs, CERK1, and OsCERK1 play a functionally conserved role in the activation of chitin signaling in ...

Protoplast‐Based Functional Genomics and Genome Editing: Progress, Challenges and Applications

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 2183-2199, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Protoplast‐based systems provide a powerful and versatile platform for exploring how plants sense and respond to their environment. By enabling the direct delivery of proteins, DNA, and RNA into plant cells after cell wall removal, this approach facilitates precise molecular dissection of signaling, stress adaptation, and gene regulation ...

Receptor-Like Kinase LYK9 in Pisum sativum L. Is the CERK1-Like Receptor that Controls Both Plant Immunity and AM Symbiosis Development [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017
Plants are able to discriminate and respond to structurally related chitooligosaccharide (CO) signals from pathogenic and symbiotic fungi. In model plants Arabidopsis thaliana and Oryza sativa LysM-receptor like kinases (LysM-RLK) AtCERK1 and OsCERK1 (chitin elicitor receptor kinase 1) were shown to be involved in response to CO signals.

GbWAKL20 Phosphorylates GbNFYB8 to Modulate Verticillium Wilt Resistance in Cotton

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
Wall‐associated receptor‐like kinases (WAKLs) play pivotal roles in extracellular–intracellular signal transduction. Upon sensing Verticillium dahliae infestation at the plasma membrane, GbWAKL20 accumulates and transmits signals to the nucleus via endoplasmic reticulum‐mediated Golgi vesicle transport.

Hop/Sti1 – A Two-Faced Cochaperone Involved in Pattern Recognition Receptor Maturation and Viral Infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Perception of pathogens by host pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) or R proteins is a prerequisite to promote successful immune responses. The Hsp70/Hsp90 organizing protein Hop/Sti1, a multifunctional cochaperone, has been implicated in the maturation

Calcium signaling in plant defense

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Calcium signaling acts as a central hub in plant immunity, translating pathogen perception into defense responses. This review highlights the channels, sensors, and signaling networks involved, and discusses how pathogens subvert calcium dynamics, as well as how this knowledge may inspire innovative strategies for engineering durable crop resistance ...

Interaction of Medicago truncatula lysin motif receptor-like kinases, NFP and LYK3, produced in Nicotiana benthamiana induces defence-like responses.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Receptor(-like) kinases with Lysin Motif (LysM) domains in their extracellular region play crucial roles during plant interactions with microorganisms; e.g.

Plasmodesmata‐located proteins: The molecular hubs in noncell‐autonomous immunity

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Plasmodesmata serve as critical battlefields for plant immunity, regulated by diverse proteins. This article provides a comprehensive review of the regulatory mechanisms, challenges, and future directions concerning proteins located within plasmodesmata and their roles in plant defense responses.

A novel Arabidopsis CHITIN ELICITOR RECEPTOR KINASE 1 (CERK1) mutant with enhanced pathogen‐induced cell death and altered receptor processing [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2014
Summary Plants detect pathogens by sensing microbe‐associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) through pattern recognition receptors. Pattern recognition receptor complexes also have roles in cell death control, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood.

Defense heterosis as a novel plant protection strategy: From theory to breeding practice

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Defense heterosis, the enhanced disease resistance of hybrids compared to their parents, has evolved from early observations of hybrid vigor to a novel research concept. Advances are now clarifying its diverse genetic and molecular mechanisms across various plant–pathogen interactions.
