Abstract excerpt
AtPep1 is a 23-aa endogenous peptide elicitor from Arabidopsis leaves that signals the activation of components of the innate immune response against pathogens. Here, we report the isolation of an AtPep1 receptor from the surface of Arabidopsis suspension-cultured cells. An (125)I-labeled AtPep1 analog interacted with suspension-cultured Arabidopsis with a K(d) of 0.25 nM, and an (125)I-labeled azido-Cys-AtPep1...
