Cellulose synthase complex organization and cellulose microfibril structure [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2017 Cellulose consists of linear chains of β-1,4-linked glucose units, which are synthesized by the cellulose synthase complex (CSC). In plants, these chains associate in an ordered manner to form the cellulose microfibrils. Both the CSC and the local environment in which the individual chains coalesce to form the cellulose microfibril ...
