The rice XA21 receptor confers immunity to the Gram-negative bacterial pathogen, Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) upon recognition of the conserved microbial signature AxY^S^22. Here, we demonstrate that the intracellular kinase domain of XA21 translocates to the nucleus upon AxY^S^22-mediated perception and that this translocation event is required for XA21-mediated immunity.
