CERK1, a LysM receptor kinase, is essential for chitin elicitor signaling in Arabidopsis

Chitin is a major component of fungal cell walls and serves as a microbe-associated molecular pattern (MAMP) for the detection of various potential pathogens in innate immune systems of both plants and animals. We recently showed that chitin elicitor-binding protein (CEBiP), plasma membrane glycopro... View More
