This study identifies and characterizes FvCPK28, a strawberry ortholog of Arabidopsis CPK28, showing it retains similar biochemical and biological functions.

This study characterizes PUB33, an Arabidopsis RLCK-IXb/PUB-VI protein, showing it has dual kinase and E3 ubiquitin ligase activities regulated by autophosphorylation and interacts with the bacterial effector RipV1 to modulate immune responses.

This study investigates the conserved and divergent roles of CPK28 in immune homeostasis across land plants, showing functional conservation in some contexts but divergence in others.

This study identifies RLCK-IXb proteins as targets of the Ralstonia solanacearum effector RipV1, revealing their role as negative regulators of plant immunity.

The paper shows that multiple PUB proteins redundantly regulate BIK1 turnover in Arabidopsis.

This study identifies subgroup VIII RLCKs in Arabidopsis thaliana as noncatalytic regulators of immune-triggered oxidative burst, highlighting their role in plant immunity.
