2D and 3D MAS NMR isused to study13C-labeled plant cell walls.
High-field NMR resolves the structural and dynamic heterogeneity of wall polymers.
Cellulose contact pectins and hemicellulose to form a single network in the wall.
The protein expansin bindsxyloglucan-rich regions of cellulose for wall loosening.
Plant primary wall cellulose is polymorphic and distinct from Iα and Iβ allomorphs.
