A conserved module regulates receptor kinase signaling in immunity and development
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Ligand recognition by cell-surface receptors underlies development and immunity in both animals and plants. Modulating receptor signaling is critical for appropriate cellular responses but the mechanisms ensuring this are poorly understood. Here, we show that signaling by plant receptors for pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) in immunity and CLAVATA3/EMBRYO SURROUNDING REGION-RELATED peptides (CLEp) in development employs a similar regulatory module. In the absence of ligand, signaling is dampened through association with specific type-2C protein phosphatases (PP2Cs). Upon activation, PAMP and CLEp receptors phosphorylate divergent cytosolic kinases, which, in turn, phosphorylate the phosphatases, thereby promoting receptor signaling. Our work reveals a regulatory circuit shared between immune and developmental receptor signaling, which may have broader important implications for plant receptor kinase-mediated signaling in general.
