Studies on the Cell Wall Structure and on the Mechanical Properties of Norway Spruce [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The structure and the mechanical properties of wood of Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst.) were studied using small samples from Finland and Sweden. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to determine the orientation of cellulose microfibrils (microfibril ...

Uncovering Sequence and Structural Characteristics of Fungal Expansin‐Related Proteins With Potential to Drive Substrate Targeting

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 2, Page 547-557, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Expansins loosen plant cell wall networks through disrupting non‐covalent bonds between cellulose microfibrils and matrix polysaccharides. Whereas expansins were first discovered in plants, expansin‐related proteins have since been identified in bacteria and fungi.
