Arabidopsis Actin-Binding Protein WLIM2A Links PAMP-Triggered Immunity and Cytoskeleton Organization.

ABSTRACT: Arabidopsis LIM proteins are named after the initials of three proteins Lin-11, Isl-1, and MEC-3, which belong to a class of transcription factors that play an important role in the developmental regulation of eukaryotes and are also involved in a variety of life processes, including gene transcription, the construction of the cytoskeleton, signal transduction, and metabolic regulation. Plant LIM proteins have been shown to regulate actin bundling in different cells, but their role in immunity remains elusive. Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are a family of conserved serine/threonine protein kinases that link upstream receptors to their downstream targets. Pathogens produce pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) that trigger the activation of MAPK cascades in plant
