Abstract excerpt
The brassinosteroid receptor brassinosteroid insensitive 1 (BRI1) is a member of the leucine-rich repeat receptor-like kinase family. The intracellular kinase domain of BRI1 is an active kinase and also encapsulates a guanylate cyclase catalytic centre. Using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry, we confirmed that the recombinant cytoplasmic domain of BRI1 generates pmol amounts of cGMP per μg protein...
