Brassinosteroid insensitive 1 (BRI1) is a membrane receptor that senses brassinosteroides, which are polyhydroxylated steroid hormones <ref name=Bojar2014>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>. Brassinosteroids control planth growth and development by activating BRI1 and starting a signaling pathway that leads to nuclear thanscription factors being activated. BRI1 is thought to be a dual-specificity kinase and it has structural features reminiscent of both serine/threonine and tyrosine kinases. | Brassinosteroid insensitive 1 (BRI1) is a membrane receptor that senses brassinosteroides, which are polyhydroxylated steroid hormones <ref name=Bojar2014>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.

Brassinosteroids control planth growth and development by activating BRI1 and starting a signaling pathway that leads to nuclear thanscription factors being activated. They do so by inducing rapid plant cell wall expansion and hyperpolarization <ref name=”Witthöft2011">Janika Witthöft, Katharina Caesar, Kirstin Elgass, Peter Huppenberger, Joachim Kilian, Frank Schleifenbaum, Claudia Oecking and Klaus Harter: The activation of the Arabidopsis P-ATPase 1 by the brassinosteroid receptor BRI1 is independent of threonine 948 phosphorylation. Plant Signaling & Behavior 6:7, 1063-1066; July 2011</ref>. The brassinosteroid induced association of BRI1 with the proton pump of P-type H+-ATPase also seems to be necessary for the activation of P-ATPase in the plasma membrane, though it is not currently known if it’s by serine/threonine phosphorylation or some other protein-protein interaction. BRI1 is thought to be a dual-specificity kinase and it has structural features reminiscent of both serine/threonine and tyrosine kinases <ref name=Bojar2014 />. | ||
In the cell, BRI1 cycles between the plasma membrane and endosomes <ref name=Bojar2014 />. When not activated, BRI1 is auto-inhibited by its own C-terminal tail as well as auto-phosphorylation of Thr872 and interaction with BRI1 kinase inhibitor protein BKI1 in the kinase domain. BKI1 also contains an N-terminal targeting motif for the plasma membrane. When the extracellular LRR domain gets activated by a brassinosteroid, it causes a reordering of 70 residues and creates a docking platform for the co-receptor SERK (somatic embryogenesis receptor kinase). The C-termini of BRI1 and SERK trans-phosphorylate each other, releasing the BKI1 from BRI1 and allowing BRI1 to phosphorylate immediate downstream signaling components (such as BRI1 substrate kinases, or BSKs). | In the cell, BRI1 cycles between the plasma membrane and endosomes <ref name=Bojar2014 />.
