| Description: | BAK1 encodes an receptor-like kinase (RLK) with a putative extracellular domain, a single transmembrane domain, an intracellular-juxtamembrane domain, and a kinase domain. BAK1 expression is associated with the progression of Prostate cancer (CaP). BAK1 appears to function in distinct receptor-signaling complexes to integrate multiple microbe-associated molecular pattern (MAMP) perception into downstream-signaling events. BAK1 can serve multiple purposes to simultaneously modulate MAMP-receptor complexes, BR signaling, and cell death for the benefit of bacterial infection, life style, and fitness. |
