Gene Description

BARELY ANY MERISTEM 1 (BAM1) is a plasma membrane leucine-rich repeat receptor-like Ser/Thr kinase of the CLAVATA1 clade. Its extracellular LRR domain binds CLV3 and a broad range of other CLE peptides, with wider ligand specificity than CLV1, and its cytoplasmic kinase phosphorylates CIK co-receptor kinases and the receptor-like cytoplasmic kinases PBL34/35/36. BAM1 forms homomers and heteromers with BAM2 and CLV1. In the shoot meristem it acts redundantly with CLV1 as a direct CLV3 receptor that restricts WUSCHEL expression. BAM1 is normally expressed in the meristem periphery and is up-regulated in the centre when CLV1 is lost, which compensates for clv1 loss. Outside the meristem, BAM1 acts with BAM2 and BAM3 in early anther cell-layer specification, male gametophyte and ovule development, leaf vascular patterning, and CLE25/26/45-triggered suppression of root protophloem differentiation.

GO:0004672 protein kinase activity
IEA
GO_REF:0000002
MODIFY
Summary: This IEA comes from the protein kinase domain signature. BAM1 has an active Ser/Thr kinase domain that phosphorylates CIKs and PBL34/35/36.
Reason: It is correct but less specific than the experimentally supported transmembrane receptor Ser/Thr kinase activity, consistent with the MODIFY of the GO:0004674 rows.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:34935965
Further biochemical assays revealed that PBL34/35/36 interacted with CLV1, BAM1/3, and CIKs, and were phosphorylated by CLV1 and BAM1.

MODIFY
Summary: BAM1 phosphorylates downstream partners: PBL34/35/36 in vitro, and CLE-induced CIK phosphorylation depends on CLV1/BAM1/BAM3. BAM1 also binds the CLV3 peptide directly (photoaffinity labelling; radioligand Kd about 26 nM), so it combines ligand binding and Ser/Thr kinase catalysis in a single transmembrane receptor.
Reason: Ser/Thr kinase activity is the catalytic core of BAM1 receptor function. Because the kinase is the cytoplasmic domain of a ligand-binding single-pass LRR receptor, the more precise term is transmembrane receptor protein serine/threonine kinase activity, a direct child of GO:0004674.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:25754504
Further analysis showed that the receptor kinase BAM1 directly binds the CLV3 peptide.
PMID:20626648
Binding was saturable for all receptors with a very similar Kd for each receptor: 30 nM for CLV1, 32 nM for CLV2, 26 nM for BAM1, and 36 nM for BAM2
PMID:34935965
Further biochemical assays revealed that PBL34/35/36 interacted with CLV1, BAM1/3, and CIKs, and were phosphorylated by CLV1 and BAM1.
PMID:34651321
CLE25/26/45 enhanced the phosphorylation levels of CIKs, which were greatly impaired in clv1 bam1 3 mutant
GO:0004674 protein serine/threonine kinase activity
IEA
GO_REF:0000003
MODIFY
Summary: BAM1 phosphorylates downstream partners: PBL34/35/36 in vitro, and CLE-induced CIK phosphorylation depends on CLV1/BAM1/BAM3.
Reason: Ser/Thr kinase activity is the catalytic core of BAM1 receptor function; as for the IDA row, the more precise term for this ligand-binding receptor is transmembrane receptor protein serine/threonine kinase activity, a direct child of GO:0004674.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:34935965
Further biochemical assays revealed that PBL34/35/36 interacted with CLV1, BAM1/3, and CIKs, and were phosphorylated by CLV1 and BAM1.

MODIFY
Summary: In radioligand competition assays, BAM1 binds the CLV3 CLE peptide (Kd about 26 nM) and is competed by most other CLE peptides tested. The interaction partners here are CLE peptide ligands. Photoaffinity labelling independently confirmed direct CLV3 binding by BAM1.
Reason: A ligand-receptor peptide interaction is better represented as peptide binding than as generic protein binding.
Proposed replacements: peptide hormone binding
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:20626648
Binding was saturable for all receptors with a very similar Kd for each receptor: 30 nM for CLV1, 32 nM for CLV2, 26 nM for BAM1, and 36 nM for BAM2
PMID:20626648
This suggests that BAM receptors have a wider range of specificity for CLE binding than either CLV1 or CLV2, perhaps related to their broad developmental roles.

GO:0009755 hormone-mediated signaling pathway
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: This IBA comes from a PANTHER node seeded by brassinosteroid receptors (BRI1, BRL2, OsBRI1). BAM1 sits inside that LRR-RK clade, and it does mediate hormone signalling: it is a receptor for CLE peptide hormones. The transfer is therefore technically valid, but the generic term says little about BAM1.
Reason: The inherited term is broadly true for a peptide-hormone receptor kinase. The specific receptor activity and meristem processes are the core annotations.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:25754504
Further analysis showed that the receptor kinase BAM1 directly binds the CLV3 peptide.

Summary: BAM1 kinase signalling leads to phosphorylation of CIKs and PBL34/35/36 and to CLV3-activated MPK3/MPK6 phosphorylation.
Reason: This is correct as a description of downstream relay, but the receptor-level process is cell surface receptor signalling.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:34935965
Further biochemical assays revealed that PBL34/35/36 interacted with CLV1, BAM1/3, and CIKs, and were phosphorylated by CLV1 and BAM1.

The CLV3-activated phosphorylation of MPK3 and MPK6 is dependent on CLV1 and BAM1.

ACCEPT
Summary: This PAINT IBA for signalling receptor activity is consistent with BAM1 acting as a direct CLE peptide receptor kinase.
Reason: This is correct, and transmembrane receptor Ser/Thr kinase activity is the more specific core term.
Supporting Evidence:

Further analysis showed that the receptor kinase BAM1 directly binds the CLV3 peptide.
PMID:20626648
Binding was saturable for all receptors with a very similar Kd for each receptor: 30 nM for CLV1, 32 nM for CLV2, 26 nM for BAM1, and 36 nM for BAM2

Summary: CLE perception by BAM1 leads to phosphorylation of CIK co-receptors and PBL34/35/36 and to CLV3-induced MPK3/6 activation, which is a receptor Ser/Thr kinase signalling cascade.

Core Functions

Plasma membrane CLE peptide receptor kinase. The LRR ectodomain binds CLV3 and other CLE peptides with broad specificity, and the kinase phosphorylates CIK co-receptors and PBL34/35/36 RLCKs. Redundantly with CLV1, this restricts WUS expression and stem cell number in the shoot meristem. BAM1 also acts in root protophloem and anther development.

Supporting Evidence:
  • PMID:25754504
    Further analysis showed that the receptor kinase BAM1 directly binds the CLV3 peptide.
  • PMID:20626648
    Binding was saturable for all receptors with a very similar Kd for each receptor: 30 nM for CLV1, 32 nM for CLV2, 26 nM for BAM1, and 36 nM for BAM2

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: Is BAM1 in the meristem periphery mainly a signalling receptor or a ligand sink that sequesters CLV3/CLE peptides, as suggested by suppression of clv3 by bam1 bam2?

Q: Which CLE ligands activate BAM1 in anther and ovule development?

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Express kinase-dead BAM1 (or BAM1 lacking its kinase domain) from the BAM1 promoter in clv1 bam1 and clv3 bam1 bam2 backgrounds, and compare rescue of WUS expression and meristem size.

Hypothesis: BAM1 restricts the stem cell niche through kinase-dependent signalling at the centre and acts as a kinase-independent ligand sink at the periphery.
