Balancing roles between phosphatidylinositols and sphingolipids in regulating immunity and ER stress responses in pi4kβ1,2.

Plant immune regulation is complex. In addition to proteins, lipid molecules play critical roles in modulating immune responses. The mutant pi4kβ1,2 is mutated in two phosphatidylinositol 4-kinases PI4Kβ1 and β2 involved in the biosynthesis of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P).
