Evolution of glucuronoxylan side chain variability in vascular plants and the counter-adaptation of pathogenic cell-wall-degrading hydrolases
2024-01-23
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> • Polysaccharide structural complexity not only influences cell wall strength and extensibility, but also hinders pathogenic and biotechnological attempts to saccharify the wall. In certain species and tissues, glucuronic acid side chains on xylan exhibit arabinopyranose or galactose decorations whose genetic and evolutionary basis is completely unknown, impeding efforts to understand their funct...
