This study identifies Arabidopsis BAG proteins as redundant proteostasis factors that maintain CESA6 stability during salt stress, ensuring cellulose synthesis and plant stress tolerance.

This study identifies a phosphorylation-dependent mechanism by which BIK1 regulates TTL3 to control cellulose biosynthesis under salt stress.

This study shows ethylene regulates root radial expansion by modulating cell wall mechanics through Auxin Response Factor1 and CESA gene repression in response to soil compaction.

This study analyzes cell wall glycans and glycosyltransferases in the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha, revealing unique features and developing a resource for genetic studies.

This paper investigates the role of GT47B genes in arabinan deposition in Marchantia polymorpha by analyzing mutants and overexpression lines, revealing reduced 1,5-L-arabinan in Mparadl2 mutants and challenges in purifying GT47B proteins.

The paper introduces PUP-IT, a pupylation-based proximity labelling method for detecting protein interactions in plants, and identifies BEN1 as a regulator of cellulose synthesis.

This study identifies IQD2 and KLCR1 as a module that promotes microtubule mechano-responsiveness in plant pavement cells by localizing to the plasma membrane-microtubule nexus.

This study identifies FNRL mutations that enhance isoxaben tolerance in Arabidopsis by activating mitochondrial retrograde signaling without compromising cellulose synthesis.

This study identifies TIP1 as an interactor of the cellulose synthase complex, showing it enhances cellulose synthesis through S-acylation in Arabidopsis thaliana.

This study shows that phosphate starvation increases cellulose synthesis in Arabidopsis roots, altering cell wall structure and reducing primary root growth through changes in cellulose synthase phosphorylation.
