Degradation of mixed-linkage (1,3;1,4)-β-D-glucan in maize is mediated by the CAL1 licheninase
2020-11-18
Abstract excerpt
The presence of mixed-linkage (1,3;1,4)-β-D-glucan (MLG) in plant cell walls is a key feature of grass species such as cereals - the main source of calorie intake for humans and cattle. Accumulation of this polysaccharide involves the coordinated regulation of biosynthetic and metabolic machineries. While several components of the MLG biosynthesis machinery have been identified in diverse plant species, degradatio...
