Using a new method to isolate and reprogram plant cells into other cell types, biologists explored how banding patterns that increase the stability of plant cell walls are created and how their ...
Artistic rendering of cellulose biosynthesis with zoomed in view. Individual cellulose chains (dark brown) are synthesized by plasma membrane-bound (purple) cellulose synthase enzyme complexes (cream) ...
We still do not understand exactly how antibiotics kill bacteria. However, this understanding is necessary if we want to develop new antibiotics. And that is precisely what is urgently needed, because ...

Two Ohio University Ph.D. students recently showcased their research at the 2025 International Conference on Plant Cell Wall ...
IN attempts to elucidate the details of plant cell wall formation, it is obvious that certain types of cells may be more useful than others. The investigation of cells which begin their existence ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Simple sugars apparently are the biological signals needed to maintain the steel-like strength of plant cell walls, according to Purdue University scientists. "This is a really ...
Xylem consists of three types of cells: tracheary elements (TEs), parenchyma cells, and fiber cells. TE differentiation includes two essential processes, programmed cell death (PCD) and secondary cell ...
American Journal of Botany, Vol. 68, No. 6 (Jul., 1981), pp. 771-777 (10 pages) The arrangement of cellulosic fibrils in the cell walls of cotton fibers is very unusual; rather than exhibiting a ...
A new method developed by Penn State biologists allows them to turn stripped-down plant cells into other types of cells, ...
