Plant Cell Walls [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2010
Cell walls are important features of plant cells that perform a number of essential functions, including providing shape to the many different cell types needed to form the tissues and organs of a plant.

Modifying lignin composition and xylan O-acetylation induces changes in cell wall composition, extractability, and digestibility

Biotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts
Background Lignin and xylan are important determinants of cell wall structure and lignocellulosic biomass digestibility. Genetic manipulations that individually modify either lignin or xylan structure improve polysaccharide digestibility.

Combining Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and multivariate analysis for chemotyping of cell wall composition in Mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wizcek)

Plant Methods
Background Dissection of complex plant cell wall structures demands a sensitive and quantitative method. FTIR is used regularly as a screening method to identify specific linkages in cell walls.

Plant cell walls: Wall-associated kinases and cell expansion [PDF]

Current Biology, 2001
Arabidopsis has a family of five cell wall-associated protein kinases (WAKs) with properties suggestive of transmembrane sensors between the cell wall and the cytoplasm. Recent results show that WAKs are bound to pectin and are necessary for normal leaf cell enlargement and other growth processes.

In Planta Cell Wall Engineering: From Mutants to Artificial Cell Walls

Plant and Cell Physiology, 2021
AbstractTo mitigate the effects of global warming and to preserve the limited fossil fuel resources, an increased exploitation of plant-based materials and fuels is required, which would be one of the most important innovations related to sustainable development.

Cell Wall

, 2021
The application of AuNPs on the infected barley cultivar had great damage results on Barley Yellow Dwarf Virus (BYDV-PAV) particles in TEM. Observation of TEM images provided an insight into the transport of AuNPs through the plasmodesmata endoplasmic reticulum route, where they likely accumulated as the channels narrowed.

Functional characterization of genes mediating cell wall metabolism and responses to plant cell wall integrity impairment

BMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background Plant cell walls participate in all plant-environment interactions. Maintaining cell wall integrity (CWI) during these interactions is essential.

Mucilage extracted from Chilean papaya seeds is enriched with homogalacturonan domains

Frontiers in Plant Science
Chilean papaya, also known as mountain papaya (Vasconcellea pubescens), is a fruit valued for its nutritional value and pleasant fragrance. The oblong fruit, featuring five ridges and a seed-filled mucilage cavity, is typically consumed cooked due to its

Genomic structural differences between cattle and River Buffalo identified through comparative genomic and transcriptomic analysis

Data in Brief, 2018
Water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis L.) is an important livestock species worldwide. Like many other livestock species, water buffalo lacks high quality and continuous reference genome assembly, required for fine-scale comparative genomics studies.
