PECTOPLATE: the simultaneous phenotyping of pectin methylesterases, pectinases and oligogalacturonides in plants during biotic stresses [PDF]
Degradation of pectin, a major component of plant cell wall, is important for fungal necrotrophs to achieve a successful infection. The activities of pectin methylesterases (PMEs) from both plants and pathogens and the degree and pattern of pectin ...

Spatial structure and composition of polysaccharide-protein complexes from Small Angle Neutron Scattering [PDF]
We use Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS), with an original analysis method, to obtain both the characteristic sizes and the inner composition of lysozyme-pectin complexes depending on the charge density.
