PBIO 691 9-24-2010 0. Hemicellulose Definition by Encyclopaedia Britannica: Hemicellulose, any of a group of complex carbohydrates that, with other carbohydrates (e.g.,pectins), surround the cellulose fibers of plant cells. The most common hemicelluloses contain xylans (many molecules of the five-carbon sugar xylose linked together), a uronic acid (i.e., sugar acid), and arabinose (another five-carbon sugar). Hemicelluloses have no chemical relationship to cellulose. More specific: “A group of wall polysaccharides that are characterized by being neither cellulose nor pectin and by having β-(1→4)- linked backbones of glucose, mannose, or xylose.” Members of the hemicellulose family: Xyloglucan (XyG): backbone made of β-(1→4)- glucans. Xlylans : backbone made of β-(1→4)- linked xylose residues. Mannans and Glucomannans: backbone contains mannose. β-(1→3,1→4)-glucans. "hemicellulose." Encyclopædia Britannica. 2010.

PBIO 691 9-24-2010 3. Xyloglucan: biosynthesis Step 3: generation of the XyG backbone The β-(1→4)- linked glucan backbone of XyG is generated by members of cellulose synthase-like (CSL) proteins that belong to the CSLC family. Schematic illustration of the phylogeny of the cellulose synthase (CESA) and cellulose synthase–like (CSL) superfamily of GTs. Not all families are present in the same species. CSLH and CSLF are only known from grasses, and CSLB and CSLG are only known from dicots. CSLE is known from all angiosperms, but not outside these groups. CESA, CSLA, CSLC, and CSLD are known from all plant genomes analyzed so far. CSLJ is present in some angiosperms, both dicots and grasses, but not in arabidopsis and rice.

PBIO 691 9-24-2010 3. Xyloglucan: biosynthesis Step 5: modification Acetylation: Mostly on O-6 of the galactose residues. Occurs in the Golgi by means of transferases using acetyl-CoA. None of the acetyltransferases or acetyl-CoA transporters required for this process have been identified. Hydrolases: Glycoside hydrolases (GHs) trim the nascent XyG chain, help keeping them soluble during transport and incorporation into the wall, and more importantly, determine XyG structures in the wall. In Arabidopsis, there are 730 open reading frames corresponding to GHs and GTs, of which 379 represent GHs classed in 29 families. Scheller, H, V and Ulvskov, P. Annu. Rev.

PBIO 691 9-24-2010 Getting started: prepare the xxxt1, xxxt2 and xxxt1 xxxt2 double knock-outs
PBIO 691 9-24-2010 Observation: dwarfed plant abnormal root hair morphology
PBIO 691 9-24-2010 What about XyGs? The double knock-out lacked detectable XyG. Why? 1. OLIMP of the XEG digested cell wall Conclusion: the double knock-outs lacked detectable XyG? NOT NOW Caution: OLIMP only analysis XyG that spans adjacent cellulose microfibers. XEG wouldn’t be necessarily able to reach this domain. A HPAEC-PAD analysis for the double knock-out walls. (B) Wild type. (C) Double knock-outs
PBIO 691 9-24-2010 What about XyGs? The double knock-out lacked detectable XyG. Why? 2. Immunal labeling of the root cell wall polysaccharides Caution: XyG antibodies recognize limited set of XyGepitops. The labeling patterns (with XyG specific antibodies) between wild type and single knock-outs might differ slightly but there was still indication of presence of XyGs in those cell wall, while the double knock-out cell wall showed no labeling.
PBIO 691 9-24-2010 2. Immunal labeling of the root cell wall polysaccharides Xylan Labeling all types of cell walls with antibodies that against other wall polysaccharides, result showed that the other wall polysaccharides were not altered with deletion of XT gene/genes.
PBIO 691 9-24-2010 What about XyGs? The double knock-out lacked detectable XyG. Why? 3. Glycosyl residue composition and glycosyl linkage analysis TFA hydrolysis liberates monosaccharides from noncellulosic polysaccharides and amorphous cellulose, while Saeman hydrolysis releases sugars from crystalline cellulose and any remaining noncellulosic polysaccharides. The TFA treatment was exhaustive. There was a drop of Xyl level in the double knock-out.
PBIO 691 9-24-2010 3. Glycosyl residue composition and glycosyl linkage analysis
PBIO 691 9-24-2010 3. Glycosyl residue composition and glycosyl linkage analysis There was a reduction in peak areas of glycosyl residues that can be assigned to XyG, including T-Fuc, 2-Gal, 4-Glc, and 4,6-Glc with respect to the wild type and the single mutants .
PBIO 691 9-24-2010 3. Glycosyl residue composition and glycosyl linkage analysis The xxt1 xxt2 double mutant has a significant reduction in the relative amounts of glycosyl linkages that can be assigned to XyG.
PBIO 691 9-24-2010 What about XyGs? The double knock-out lacked detectable XyG. Why? 4. Driselase hydrolysis The absence of IP in double knock-out Driselase hydrolysis indicated there was no XyG present in the double knock-out roots.
PBIO 691 9-24-2010 What would be affected as a double knock-out? The xxxt2 knock-out and double knock-out affect the mechanical strength of the hypocotyls.
PBIO 691 9-24-2010 Conclusive remarks XXT1 and XXT2 encode XyG XTs that are required for XyG biosynthesis. 2. The xxt1 and xxt2 single mutants had a modest reduction in XyG and the xxt1 xxt2 double mutant lacks detectable XyG. 3. The reduction of XyG content in the xxt2 single mutant and the lack of detectable XyG in the xxt1 xxt2 double mutant caused significant reductions in the stiffness and ultimate strength parameters of these mutants.
PBIO 691 9-24-2010 Issues that remain unsolved Whether XXXT1 and XXXT2 genes are redundant? How many genes are there that involves the production of the repetitive XXXGs? Are XXXT1 and XXXT2 working with other genes? If so, who are those genes? Without the supporting XyGs, how come the cell wall didn’t collapse? From the cell wall point of view, how does it change morphologically after the depletion of XyGs?
