A receptor protein links plant cell wall surveillance with hormone signaling

ABSTRACT: The growth and shape of plants is mainly defined by the properties of their cell walls, which dynamically adapt to internal and external cues. Therefore, the cell wall is under constant surveillance to relay feedback information to the cell interior. However, very little is known about how cell wall signaling is integrated with intracellular growth regulation. Here, we have identified a receptor-like protein, RLP44, which conveys information from the cell wall to the brassinosteroid hormone signaling pathway by interacting with the regulatory receptor-like kinase BAK1. This conditional RLP44-mediated signaling activation is required for normal development and stress responses, requires functional brassinosteroid receptor, but is partially independent of the hormone ligand. We sought to ide
