Pectin methylesterase and pectin remodelling differ in the fibre walls of two gossypium species with very different fibre properties.
Pectin, a major component of the primary cell walls of dicot plants, is synthesized in Golgi, secreted into the wall as methylesters and subsequently de-esterified by pectin methylesterase (PME). Pectin remodelling by PMEs is known to be important in regulating cell expansion in plants, but has been...
