Jewaria P, Aryal B, Begum R, Wang Y, Sancho-Andres G, Baba A, et al.
Sci Adv . 2025 Feb; 11(7):eads0760. PMID: 39937898
Defects in cell wall integrity (CWI) profoundly affect plant growth, although, underlying mechanisms are not well understood. We show that in mutant, CWI defects from compromising dimerization of RG-II pectin,...

Rapin M, Bothwell J, Fry S
Ann Bot . 2024 Aug; 134(7):1191-1206. PMID: 39212683
Background And Aims: The cell walls of charophytic algae both resemble and differ from those of land plants. Cell walls in early-diverging charophytes (e.g. Klebsormidiophyceae) are particularly distinctive in ways...

Imran M, Frankova L, Qaisar U, Fry S
Biochem J . 2024 Aug; 481(18):1221-1240. PMID: 39207824
Cellulosic microfibrils in plant cell walls are largely ensheathed and probably tethered by hydrogen-bonded hemicelluloses. Ensheathing may vary developmentally as hemicelluloses are peeled to enable cell expansion. We characterised a...

Ford C, Sweetman C, Fry S
J Exp Bot . 2024 Feb; 75(9):2733-2739. PMID: 38349794
A role for l-ascorbate as the precursor of several plant compounds adds to its already broad metabolic utility. There are many examples of plant species in which oxalate and l-threonate...

Al-Hinai T, Mackay C, Fry S
Ann Bot . 2024 Jan; 133(4):547-558. PMID: 38180460
Background And Aims: The softening of ripening fruit involves partial depolymerization of cell-wall pectin by three types of reaction: enzymic hydrolysis, enzymic elimination (lyase-catalysed) and non-enzymic oxidative scission. Two known...

Rapin M, Murray L, Sadler I, Bothwell J, Fry S
Physiol Plant . 2023 Dec; 175(6):e14079. PMID: 38148229
All land-plant cell walls possess hemicelluloses, cellulose and anionic pectin. The walls of their cousins, the charophytic algae, exhibit some similarities to land plants' but also major differences. Charophyte 'pectins'...

Ishfaq Khan M, Begum R, Frankova L, Fry S
Ann Bot . 2023 Dec; 133(3):447-458. PMID: 38141653
Background And Aims: Cress seeds release allelochemicals that over-stimulate the elongation of hypocotyls of neighbouring (potentially competing) seedlings and inhibit their root growth. The hypocotyl promoter is potassium, but the...

Begum R, Fry S
Plants (Basel) . 2023 Dec; 12(23). PMID: 38068557
Most pectic rhamnogalacturonan-II (RG-II) domains in plant cell walls are borate-bridged dimers. However, the sub-cellular locations, pH dependence, reversibility and biocatalyst involvement in borate bridging remain uncertain. Experiments discussed here...

Whale E, Bulling A, Fry S
Int J Biol Macromol . 2023 Oct; 253(Pt 7):127356. PMID: 37838137
Sugar-beet pulp (SBP) is an abundant, cellulose-rich, non-food by-product of agriculture. Oxidised SBP (oP) has valuable viscosity attributes, and different oxidation protocols yield higher- or lower-viscosity oP. We investigated how...
