An enzyme activity capable of endotransglycosylation of heteroxylan polysaccharides is present in plant primary cell walls
Heteroxylans in the plant cell wall have been proposed to have a role analogous to that of xyloglucans or heteromannans, forming growth-restraining networks by interlocking cellulose microfibrils. A xylan endo...
