Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Plants recognize pathogen infection by cell-surface receptors-mediated perception of pathogen associated molecular patterns, which results in intracellular activation of MAPK cascade. Subsequently, MAPKs induce a variety of defense responses. However, how MAPK cascades are activated downstream of the receptor had not been identified. In this study, we found that the receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase PBL27 connects chitin receptor and a MAPK cascade, providing a model of the MAPK activation induced by pathogen recognition.
