Switch to other families

Description:
Plant RLKs that contain a legume lectin extracellular domain are classified into the L-LecRLK family (Vaid et al., 2013). Interestingly, functionally characterized L-LecRLKs are associated with plant immunity, while few L-LecRLKs regulate plant development or abiotic stress tolerance (Wang and Bouwmeester, 2017). Most studied L-LecRLKs are two immune receptors that sense damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). These include DORN1, which detects extracellular adenosine 5'-triphosphate (eATP) (Choi et al., 2014) and the receptor of extracellular nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (eNAD+), LecR-VI.2 (Wang et al., 2019). The hidden Markov model (HMM) PF00139 was used for the L-LecRLK classification.
