Gene Description

CLAVATA2 (CLV2) is a single-pass type I transmembrane receptor-like protein (AtRLP10) with an extracellular leucine-rich repeat domain and a short cytoplasmic tail that lacks a kinase domain. CLV2 forms a heteromeric receptor complex with the membrane pseudokinase CORYNE (CRN); the two proteins associate through their transmembrane/juxtamembrane regions and require each other for export from the endoplasmic reticulum to the plasma membrane. The CLV2/CRN complex perceives CLV3 and other CLE peptides, in parallel with and partly in cooperation with the CLV1/BAM receptor kinases and CIK co-receptor kinases, to restrict WUSCHEL expression and stem cell number in shoot and floral meristems. Whether CLV2 binds CLE peptides directly is contested (radioligand binding versus photoaffinity labelling), so it is best viewed as a CLE co-receptor. CLV2/CRN is also needed for responses to many root-active CLE peptides in the protophloem and proximal root meristem (including CLE14-triggered root meristem differentiation under phosphate starvation), for gynoecium and floral organ development, and for perception of CLE-like effectors secreted by cyst nematodes.

Summary: clv2 and crn mutants are resistant to many root-active CLE peptides, which shows that CLV2 is required for CLE perception (Hazak et al. 2017). The IMP evidence shows the requirement, but not that CLV2 by itself binds the ligand and starts signalling. Direct CLE binding by CLV2 is contested: it was reported by radioligand assays and not detected by photoaffinity labelling. CLV2 works with CRN and with the CLV1/BAM/CIK receptor kinases.
Reason: Coreceptor activity (combining with the messenger in cooperation with a nearby primary receptor) fits the role of the kinase-less CLV2/CRN complex better than a stand-alone peptide receptor activity. It is the best available term, although its definition (combining with the messenger) leans toward the radioligand-binding side of the dispute over direct CLE binding.
Proposed replacements: coreceptor activity
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:28607033
the receptor-like protein CLAVATA 2 (CLV2) and the pseudokinase CORYNE (CRN) are necessary to fully sense root-active CLE peptides
PMID:25754504
In contrast, the CLV2/CRN complex and RPK2 are not involved in direct ligand interactions but may act as co-receptors.
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: CLV2 interacts with the pseudokinase CRN through the transmembrane and juxtamembrane regions. The interaction is shown by luciferase complementation and co-IP, and by co-IP in stable Arabidopsis lines. It forms the CLV2/CRN receptor complex needed for ER export of both proteins.
Reason: Generic protein binding is uninformative. CRN is a receptor-like (pseudo)kinase, and the CLV2-CRN association is a receptor-complex interaction.
Proposed replacements: signaling receptor binding
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:19843317
CLV2 can directly interact with CRN in the absence of CLV3
PMID:20626648
Transgenic Arabidopsis plants stably expressing CLV2-MYC and CRN-GFP were used to assess interactions in vivo. Here we also observed robust co-IP between the two proteins
PMID:19933383
CRN readily forms homomers and interacts with CLV2 through the transmembrane domain and adjacent juxtamembrane sequences.

Summary: CLV2 shows saturable radioligand binding of the CLV3 CLE peptide (Kd about 32 nM) and competition by several other CLE peptides in membrane fractions and immunoprecipitates (Guo et al. 2010). This is a ligand-binding interaction with a CLE peptide, not generic protein binding. Direct binding was not reproduced by photoaffinity labelling (Shinohara and Matsubayashi 2015), so the claim is contested.
Reason: The curator's evidence is saturable, competable radioligand binding of CLE peptides by CLV2 (Kd about 32 nM), which is a ligand-binding measurement, so peptide hormone binding is the specific term for what was assayed; generic protein binding is uninformative. The replacement records the reported interaction only. Because photoaffinity labelling did not detect it (see summary), it is not used as a core function, which is coreceptor activity.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: CLV2/CRN are needed to fully sense root-active CLE peptides that act in the protophloem and proximal root meristem. The IMP is based on resistance to added CLE peptides.
Reason: This is a root-context output of CLE perception, supported mainly by peptide-resistance assays.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: CLV2 is a single-pass transmembrane protein. Membrane is correct but uninformative compared with plasma membrane.
Reason: This is correct but redundant with the more specific plasma membrane annotations.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:10521522
We isolated the CLV2 gene and found that it encodes a receptor-like protein (RLP), with a presumed extracellular domain composed of leucine-rich repeats
GO:0038023 signaling receptor activity
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
ACCEPT
Summary: This PAINT IBA places CLV2 in a receptor-like protein clade with signalling receptor activity. It is consistent with the role of CLV2 as a CLE co-receptor.
Reason: This general receptor activity is correct, and coreceptor activity is its more specific child.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:18381924
We show here that the novel receptor kinase CORYNE (CRN) and CLV2 act together, and in parallel with CLV1, to perceive the CLV3 signal.
PMID:25754504
In contrast, the CLV2/CRN complex and RPK2 are not involved in direct ligand interactions but may act as co-receptors.

Summary: clv2 mutants show growth-related phenotypes, including altered organ development and photoperiod-dependent changes. Regulation of growth is a broad downstream term.

KEEP AS NON CORE

Core Functions

Kinase-less LRR receptor-like protein that, as an obligate heteromer with the pseudokinase CRN at the plasma membrane, acts as a co-receptor for CLV3 and other CLE peptides. It cooperates with CLV1/BAM receptor kinases and CIK co-receptor kinases to restrict WUS expression and stem cell number in the shoot meristem, and mediates responses to root-active CLE peptides.

Supporting Evidence:
  • PMID:18381924
    We show here that the novel receptor kinase CORYNE (CRN) and CLV2 act together, and in parallel with CLV1, to perceive the CLV3 signal.
  • PMID:25754504
    In contrast, the CLV2/CRN complex and RPK2 are not involved in direct ligand interactions but may act as co-receptors.
  • PMID:29581511
    CIKs function as co-receptors of CLV1, CLV2/CRN and RPK2 to mediate CLV3 signalling through phosphorylation.
  • 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:19933383
    We found that CLV2 and CRN require each other for export from the endoplasmic reticulum and localization to the plasma membrane (PM).
  • PMID:21705761
    The CLAVATA1 (CLV1), CLV2, and CORYNE (CRN) receptors in Arabidopsis thaliana maintain cell proliferation in shoot apical meristems by restricting expression of the transcription factor WUSCHEL (WUS).

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: Does CLV2 bind CLV3 and other CLE peptides directly? Radioligand binding (Guo et al. 2010) and photoaffinity labelling with arabinosylated CLV3 (Shinohara and Matsubayashi 2015) give conflicting answers. Could binding depend on CRN, on CLV1/BAM, or on ligand arabinosylation?

Q: How does the kinase-less CLV2/CRN complex relay signal: through CIK co-receptor kinases, through association with CLV1/BAM complexes, or through the CRN pseudokinase domain acting as an allosteric scaffold?

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Purify CLV2 ectodomain alone and the CLV2/CRN ectodomain-transmembrane complex, and measure binding of arabinosylated and non-arabinosylated CLV3 by ITC/GCI, with CLV1 and BAM1 ectodomains as positive controls.

Hypothesis: CLV2 binds CLE peptides with low affinity on its own and needs a partner receptor for high-affinity binding.
