It is well established that cellulose synthesis in higher plants requires three different but related cellulose synthase (CESA) isoforms. Here the authors provide convincing biochemical and cryo ...

Hormone levels fluctuate like the tides, ebbing and flowing according to carefully orchestrated cycles. These hormones not only influence the body, but can cross into the brain and shape the behavior ...

ABSTRACT: Genomic surveillance has proven to be a critical source of information for understanding and responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. In Africa, genomic surveillance was very limited, and few ...

For the first time, high-resolution time-lapse videos of tiny bits of living plants show how they assemble their protective cell walls, researchers report March 21 in Science Advances. The image ...

In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of cellulose -- a major constituent of all plant cell walls -- a team has captured images of the microscopic process of cell-wall building continuously over ...

Artistic rendering of cellulose regenerating on a plant protoplast cell surface with zoomed out view. Cellulose is synthesized by plasma membrane-bound enzyme complexes (green) and assembles into a ...

All cells of higher plants are encased in a mainly carbohydrate based cell wall also referred to as lignocellulosics. Lignocellulosics represent the dominant carbon sequestration system on land.
