Arabidopsis CPK5 Phosphorylates the Chitin Receptor LYK5 to Regulate Plant Innate Immunity [PDF]
Chitin, a major component of the fungal cell wall, triggers plant innate immunity in Arabidopsis via a receptor complex including two major lysin motif receptor-like kinases, AtLYK5, and AtCERK1.

LYM2 mediates chitin-induced plasmodesmal flux reduction in Populus x canescens [PDF]
IntroductionLysin motif domain-containing glycosylphosphatidyl inositol-anchored protein 2 (LYM2) is a GPI-anchored LysM receptor-like protein (LysM-RLP) that harbors three extracellular LysM-domains and a GPI moiety at the C- terminus. In rice, the LYM2

Anion channel SLAH3 is a regulatory target of chitin receptor-associated kinase PBL27 in microbial stomatal closure [PDF]
In plants, antimicrobial immune responses involve the cellular release of anions and are responsible for the closure of stomatal pores. Detection of microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) induces currents ...

CRISPR/Cas9-based knockout of BnaLYK compromises pattern-triggered immunity and resistance to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in Brassica napus [PDF]
Rapeseed (Brassica napus) is severely threatened by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, the causal agent of Sclerotinia stem rot (SSR). The lack of fully resistant cultivars, combined with the genetic complexity of rapeseed as an allopolyploid species, has ...

Arabidopsis ubiquitin ligase PUB12 interacts with and negatively regulates Chitin Elicitor Receptor Kinase 1 (CERK1). [PDF]
In Arabidopsis, fungal chitin is recognized as a pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) by the chitin receptor complex containing the lysin-motif (LysM) receptor-like kinases CERK1 and LYK5.
