Catalytically inactive subgroup VIII receptor-like cytoplasmic kinases regulate the immune-triggered oxidative burst in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Protein kinases are key components of multiple cell signaling pathways. Several receptor-like cytoplasmic kinases (RLCKs) have demonstrated roles in immune and developmental signaling across various plant species, making them of interest in the study of phosphorylation-based signal relay. Here, we present our investigation of a subgroup of RLCKs in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Real-World Outcomes of Selective Inhibitor Selpercatinib in the United States: Descriptive, Retrospective Findings from Two Databases.

Objectives: This study described real-world patient characteristics and outcomes among selpercatinib-treated patients in the United States, using the Flatiron Health electronic health record-derived deidentified database (FHD) for advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (a/mNSCLC) and Optum's de-identified Clinformatics Data Mart Database (CDM).

Methods: Patients initiating selpercatinib treatment between 08MAY2020 and 30JUN2023 were included. We evaluated real-world time to selpercatinib treatment discontinuation or death (rwTTDd) and time to next treatment or death (rwTTNTd) using Kaplan-Meier analyses.

Receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase MAZZA mediates developmental processes with CLAVATA1 family receptors in Arabidopsis.

The receptor-like kinases (RLKs) CLAVATA1 (CLV1) and BARELY ANY MERISTEMs (BAM1-BAM3) form the CLV1 family (CLV1f), which perceives peptides of the CLV3/EMBRYO SURROUNDING REGION (ESR)-related (CLE) family within various signaling pathways of Arabidopsis thaliana. CLE peptide signaling, which is required for meristem size control, vascular development, and pathogen responses, involves the formation of receptor complexes at the plasma membrane. These complexes comprise RLKs and co-receptors in varying compositions depending on the signaling context, and regulate expression of target genes, such as WUSCHEL (WUS).

The RING-Type E3 Ligase XBAT35.2 Is Involved in Cell Death Induction and Pathogen Response.

XBAT35 belongs to a subfamily of Arabidopsis () RING-type E3s that are similar in domain architecture to the rice () XA21 Binding Protein3, a defense protein. The transcript undergoes alternative splicing to produce two protein isoforms, XBAT35.1 and XBAT35.
