The Plant Cell Wall: Biosynthesis, construction, and functions.
The plant cell wall is composed of multiple biopolymers, representing one of the most complex structural networks in nature. Hundreds of genes are involved in building such a natural masterpiece.

Systematic Comparison of Cell Wall-Related Proteins of Different Yeasts
Yeast cell walls have two major roles, to preserve physical integrity of the cell, and to ensure communication with surrounding molecules and cells. While the first function requires evolutionary conserved polysaccharide network synthesis, the second ...

A Wall with Integrity: Surveillance and Maintenance of the Plant Cell Wall Under Stress.
The structural and functional integrity of the wall needs to be constantly monitored and fine-tuned to allow for growth while preventing mechanical failure.

Arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) are members of the hydroxyproline-rich glycoprotein (HRGP) superfamily, a group of highly diverse proteoglycans that are present in the cell wall, plasma membrane as well as secretions of almost all plants, with important ...

Niche Specialization and Functional Overlap of Bamboo Leaf and Root Microbiota
Leaves and roots harbor taxonomically diverse bacterial assemblages which enhance plant growth and performance by increasing nutrient supply and resistance to stress. An extensive investigation of bacterial diversity and composition between leaf and root

Mini Review: Transport of Hydrophobic Polymers Into the Plant Apoplast
The plant apoplast contains the four hydrophobic polymer, lignin, suberin, cutin, and cutan, that are crucial for stress resistance, controlling solute diffusion, and strengthening the cell wall.

The Cell Walls of Streptococci [PDF]
SUMMARY: The cell-wall compositions of 197 strains of streptococci were determined by paper chromatography. The residues formed 26 patterns, but 117 strains had one or other of only 3 patterns. The results suggest possibilities for future investigations of some poorly defined taxa.

The development of a range of sub-proteomic approaches to the plant cell wall has identified many of the cell wall proteins. However, it remains difficult to elucidate the precise biological role of each protein and the cell wall dynamics driven by their

The cell wall is a rigid structure essential for survival of the fungal cell. Because of its absence in mammalian cells, the cell wall is an attractive target for antifungal agents. Thus, for different reasons, it is important to know how the cell wall is synthesized and how different molecules regulate that synthesis.
