Cell wall deposition and metabolism in wheat grain (2012, background): “pastoris and/or insect cells (Cavalier and Keegstra, 2006; Faik et al., 2002) demonstrated that three of the candidate genes encoded cello-oligosaccharidedependent xylosyltransferase activity (Cavalier and Keegstra, 2006; Faik et al.”

Cell-wall carbohydrates and their modification as a resource for biofuels. (2008, background): “When one of the xyloglucan xylosyltransferase genes, which is responsible for substituting the glucan backbone with xylosyl residues (Faik et al., 2002), was co-expressed with the CslC gene, the cells produced large quantities of unsubstituted b-1,4-glucan (Cocuron et al., 2007).”
