• Plant pattern recognition receptor complexes at the plasma membrane. (2012, background): “An innovative chimeric receptor approach using the intracellular region of EFR revealed that the EGF-like domain-containing RLK WAK1 is a PRR for oligogalacturonides, which are released from plant cell walls during fungal infections or wounding [31 ].”
• Comprehending crystalline β-carotene accumulation by comparing engineered cell models and the natural carotenoid-rich system of citrus (2011, neutral): “It is probable that wall-associated kinase 1 (WAK1) and WAK2 are the actual receptors of these molecules (Brutus et al., 2010), transferring the signal across the plasma membrane.”
• The FLS2-associated kinase BIK1 directly phosphorylates the NADPH oxidase RbohD to control plant immunity. (2014, background): “Cell Ho patterns such as oligogalacturonides and small peptides that are generated during pathogen infection (Brutus et al., 2010; Krol et al., 2010; Yamaguchi et al., 2010).”
• Oligo-carrageenans induce a long-term and broad-range protection against pathogens in tobacco plants (var. Xanthi) (2012, background): “In addition, it was recently determined that oligo-galacturonides binds to Wall-Associated Kinase-1 (WAK-1) receptor which contains an extracellular domain having several Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)-like repeats and an N-terminal and non-EGF domain that binds oligogalacturonides [15] which is coup”
• REVIEW: PART OF A SPECIAL ISSUE ON PLANT CELL WALLS An update on receptor-like kinase involvement in the maintenance of plant cell wall integrity (2014, background): “It has been demonstrated that WAK1 binds oligogalacturonides, and that oligogalacturonide binding elicits defence responses in a chimaeric RLK consisting of an extracellular WAK1 domain and an intracellular kinase domain of the EF-Tu receptor (Brutus et al., 2010).”
