Analysis of E3 ligases and identification of ubiquitination sites regulating turnover of the plant immune signaling kinase BIK1
Plants possess sophisticated mechanisms for responding to the threat of pathogens. Microbial patterns such as bacterial flagellin are perceived by receptor complexes located at the plant plasma membrane. This perception ... -
Investigating ubiquitin-mediated turnover of the key immune signaling protein kinase BOTRYTIS INDUCED KINASE1
Plants are susceptible to infection from bacterial, fungal, and viral diseases; although sessile, they are far from defenseless. Plants have evolved complex immune systems for the detection of pathogens and initiation of ...
