“…The primary wall of growing cells is a three-dimensional dynamic network composed of cellulose, hemicelluloses, pectins and a small amount of structural proteins (Somerville et al, 2004;Cosgrove, 2005;Lampugnani et al, 2018). Pectin chemistrysuch as HG de-methylesterification, Ca 2+ -mediated HG crosslinking, and borate crosslinking of RG-IIaffects the stiffness of the wall and, as a result, cell and organ growth (O'Neill et al, 2001;Peaucelle et al, 2008Peaucelle et al, , 2011Peaucelle et al, , 2015Qi et al, 2017;Rui et al, 2017;Bou Daher et al, 2018). Each cellulose microfibril is composed of b-1,4-linked glucan chains synthesized at the cell surface by cellulose synthase (CESA) complexes (CSCs), which are highly mobile membrane proteins (Paredez et al, 2006;McFarlane et al, 2014;Kieber & Polko, 2019).…”
