Characterization of novel genetic alleles of cellulose synthase
(2011-01-01)Cellulose is the most abundant polymer on earth. Despite this, relatively little is known about the proteins and biochemical mechanisms governing cellulose biosynthesis. Only in the past 10 years since the sequencing of ... -
Expression of Arabidopsis thaliana cellulose synthase proteins and associated proteins in a Spodoptera frugiperda cell line
(2012-10-01)Understanding how cellulose synthesis occurs is key to understanding the formation of the plant cell wall. This understanding could also be key to modifying cellulose production to permit more efficient extraction of ... -
Genetic analysis of cellulose crystallization in Gluconacetobacter xylinus
(2015-08-01)In nature, polysaccharides, such as cellulose, are important biopolymers involved in numerous biological functions including prevention of cellular desiccation, energy storage, osmoregulation, and cell wall formation. Apart ...
