Factors Involved in Fruit Calcium Deficiency Disorders (2012, background): “Another noncovalent bond, known as an electrostatic bond, is formed because of the attraction between Ca2þ and negatively charged groups such as carboxylate (–COO ) groups present on polygalacturonic acid chains (Caffall and Mohnen 2009).”
The sticky tale of seed coat mucilages: production, genetics, and role in seed germination and dispersal (2011, background): “Seed coat mucilages are often characterized by the presence of the pectin rhamnogalacturonan I (RG I), which has an alternating backbone of 1 ! 2linked rhamnose and 1 ! 4-linked galacturonic acid, with varying degrees of 1 ! 5-linked arabinose, 1 ! 3linked galactose and/or arabinogalactan side-chain”
Natural Pectin Polysaccharides as Edible Coatings (2015, background): “RGI and RGII are called hairy regions in the pectin structure whereas HG is the smooth part of the molecule [13,14].”
Fungal enzyme sets for plant polysaccharide degradation (2011, background): “2001; Wong 2008; Caffall and Mohnen 2009). The latter polysaccharide is the most complex pectin structure. Its backbone consists of alternating L-rhamnose J. van den Brink : R. P. de Vries (*) CBS-KNAW Fungal Biodiversity Centre, Uppsalalaan 8, 3584 CT, Utrecht, The Netherlands e-mail: r.devries@cbs”
Cell Wall Modifying Proteins Mediate Plant Acclimatization to Biotic and Abiotic Stresses (2011, background): “Pectins are a class of galacturonic acid containing polysaccharides (Box 1) that form a hydrated gel-like matrix in which the cellulose and hemicelluloses are embedded (Caffall and Mohnen, 2009).”
The Glycosyltransferase Repertoire of the Spikemoss Selaginella moellendorffii and a Comparative Study of Its Cell Wall (2012, neutral): “Pectin is the most complex cell wall polysaccharides, and their biosynthetic pathways are poorly understood [76,77,78,79,80].”
Rhamnogalacturonan-I: A Structurally Puzzling and Functionally Versatile Polysaccharide from Plant Cell Walls and Mucilages (2011, background): “76 Esterification with acetyl or methyl groups exerts no significant perturbation on the original conformation of RGs-I.”
The cell wall in plant cell response to trace metals: polysaccharide remodeling and its role in defense strategy (2010, background): “This results in calcium gel formation and CW stiffening (for review, e.g., Carpita and Gibeaut 1993; Caffall and Mohnen 2009).”
Heterogeneity in the chemistry, structure and function of plant cell walls. (2010, background): “Pectins contribute to the mechanical strength, porosity, adhesion and stiffness of the cell wall and have been implicated in many processes, including wall slippage, extension and intercellular signalin”
