Abstract excerpt
Extracellular ATP (eATP) acts as a damage-associated molecular pattern in both animals and plants. In plants, eATP is recognized by the purinergic receptors P2K1 and P2K2, which mediate responses to various environmental stresses. From a p2k1 suppressor screen in Arabidopsis thaliana, we identified two allelic mutants of the cutin biosynthesis gene, BODYGUARD (BDG). The BDG mutations specifically suppress p2k1...
