The kinase domain adopts an active conformation with a salt-bridge between Lys911 and Glu927 <ref>Daniel Bojar, Jacobo Martinez, Julia Santiago, Vladimir Rybin, Richard Bayliss and Michael Hothorn: Crystal structures of the phosphorylated BRI1 kinase domain and implications for brassinosteroid signal initiation. The Plant Journal (2014) 78, 31–43. PMID: 24461462 doi: 10.1111/tpj.12445</ref>. There is also a hydrogen bond between Glu927 and Tyr956. This tyrosine residue is a gatekeeper determining the size of the nucleotide binding pocket. Comparison with other plant receptor-like kinases suggests this hydrogen bond interaction and salt-bridge are important for the activation. | The kinase domain adopts an active conformation with a salt-bridge between Lys911 and Glu927 <ref name=Bojar>Daniel Bojar, Jacobo Martinez, Julia Santiago, Vladimir Rybin, Richard Bayliss and Michael Hothorn: Crystal structures of the phosphorylated BRI1 kinase domain and implications for brassinosteroid signal initiation.
