Abstract excerpt
Mannans with β-1,4-linked backbones are common cell wall components of algae and land plants. Prior challenges to enhance β-mannan content in plants point to unclear metabolic bottlenecks and the potential for hidden biosynthetic players. Endo-β-MANNANASEs (MANs) are the main glycosyl hydrolases that mobilize extracellular β-mannans during seed germination. However, we found that Arabidopsis man2 man5 seeds...
