Characterization of the linkage between xyloglucan and pectin in Arabidopsis thaliana culture cell walls
(2021-07)Xyloglucan, a major cross-linking glycan in the primary cell wall of most eudicots, has been considered to be independent of the pectic network. However, several groups have found strong evidence for a covalent attachment ... -
Conjugated polymer nanoparticles for effective siRNA delivery to tobacco BY-2 protoplasts
(BioMed Central, 2010-12-30)Background: Post transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) is a mechanism harnessed by plant biologists to knock down gene expression. siRNAs contribute to PTGS that are synthesized from mRNAs or viral RNAs and function to ... -
GENETIC AND GENOMIC ANALYSIS OF BAHD ACYLTRANSFERASES THAT DECORATE CELL WALL COMPONENTS WITH PHENOLIC ESTERS AND ALTER PLANT BIOMASS RECALCITRANCE
(2018)Next generation biofuels make use of the energy stored in plant cell walls, so called lignocellulosic biomass. However, the natural resistance of plant cell walls against deconstruction, i.e., “cell wall recalcitrance”, ... -
Proteomics Coupled with Metabolite and Cell Wall Profiling Reveal Metabolic Processes of a Developing Rice Stem Internode
(2017-07-13)Internodes of grass stems function in mechanical support, transport, and, in some species, are a major sink organ for carbon in the form of cell wall polymers. This study reports cell wall composition, proteomic, and ...
