NCBI Protein Information
somatic embryogenesis receptor-like kinase 1
NCBI Summary
Plasma membrane LRR receptor-like serine threonine kinase expressed during embryogenesis in locules until stage 6 anthers, with higher expression in the tapetal cell layer. SERK1 and SERK2 receptor kinases function redundantly as an important control point for sporophytic development controlling male gametophyte production. later

UniProt Comments
Dual specificity kinase acting on both serine/threonine- and tyrosine-containing substrates. Phosphorylates BRI1 on 'Ser-887' and CDC48 on at least one threonine residue and on 'Ser-41'. Confers embryogenic competence. Acts redundantly with SERK2 as a control point for sporophytic development controlling male gametophyte production. Involved in the brassinolide signaling pathway.
