Members of this family function as cell surface receptors that recognize specific molecular patterns associated with microbial activity, such as chitin oligosaccharides and peptidoglycans. These receptors play crucial roles in plant defense by detecting pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs), leading to the activation of defense genes. They are also involved in symbiotic relationships, such as the nitrogen-fixing root nodule symbiosis with rhizobia, by recognizing Nod factor signals. The family includes kinases that phosphorylate downstream partners in response to elicitation, mediating signal transduction from the extracellular to intracellular spaces and contributing to resistance against pathogenic fungi and bacteria.
