  3. Dec 15, 2023 · This Review describes the physics of wall growth and its regulation by cellular processes such as cellulose production by cellulose synthase, modulation of wall pH by plasma membrane H+-ATPase,...

  4. Aug 10, 2016 · The cell wall hosts a wide range receptors, pores and channels that regulate molecular movement and responses to local and long-range elicitors including hormones, sugars, proteins, and RNAs. Consistent with a role in many processes, plant cell wall structure is incredibly varied, not only between plant species but also between tissue types.
