Abstract excerpt

Pectins are a family of highly complex multifunctional cell wall polysaccharides. Little is known on the relation between pectin structure, hydrodynamic properties, and cellular function. In this study, we took advantage of the Arabidopsis pectin mutant quasimodo2 (qua2), which specifically lacks half of its homogalacturonan blocks, to study the relationship between the amount of homogalacturonan blocks and the...
