Abstract Pectins are abundant in the cell walls of dicotyledonous plants, but how they interact with other wall polymers and influence integrity growth has remained mysterious. Here, we verified that QUASIMODO2 (QUA2) is a pectin methyltransferase determined QUA2 required for normal biosynthesis. To gain further insight into affects assembly maintenance, investigated cellulose biosynthesis, organization, cortical microtubules, signaling two mutant alleles Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana)...
Abstract Purple coneflower ( Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench) is a popular native North American herbal plant. Its major bioactive compound, chicoric acid, reported to have various potential physiological functions, but little known about its biosynthesis. Here, taking an activity-guided approach, we identify two cytosolic BAHD acyltransferases that form intermediates, caftaric acid and chlorogenic acid. Surprisingly, unique serine carboxypeptidase-like acyltransferase uses as acyl donor...
