Nucleoporin NUP88/MOS7 is required for manifestation of phenotypes associated with the Arabidopsis CHITIN ELICITOR RECEPTOR KINASE1 mutant cerk1-4
Title: Nucleoporin NUP88/MOS7 is required for manifestation of phenotypes associated with the Arabidopsis CHITIN ELICITOR RECEPTOR KINASE1 mutant cerk1-4.

Study indicated that CERK1 physically interacts with ANNEXIN 1 (ANN1), which was reported to form a calcium-permeable channel that contributes to the NaCl-induced [Ca(2+) ]cyt signal. In turn, ann1 mutants showed elevated chitin-induced rapid responses
Title: Chitin receptor CERK1 links salt stress and chitin-triggered innate immunity in Arabidopsis.

co-expression of PUB12 in Nicotiana benthamiana reduced the accumulation of CERK1. The pub12 pub13 mutant exhibited enhanced chitin-induced immune responses such as ROS production, MAPK activation, and callose deposition
Title: Arabidopsis ubiquitin ligase PUB12 interacts with and negatively regulates Chitin Elicitor Receptor Kinase 1 (CERK1).

the phosphorylation of specific residues in the kinase domain of CERK1 contributes to the regulation of downstream signaling.
Title: Autophosphorylation of Specific Threonine and Tyrosine Residues in Arabidopsis CERK1 is Essential for the Activation of Chitin-Induced Immune Signaling.

PBL27 interacts with both CERK1 and the MAPK kinase kinase MAPKKK5 at the plasma membrane and knockout of MAPKKK5 compromise chitin-induced MAPK kinase activation and disease resistance to Alternaria brassicicola.
Title: The Arabidopsis CERK1-associated kinase PBL27 connects chitin perception to MAPK activation.
