Significance

Cellulose, the most abundant biopolymer on earth, is the major constituent of plant cell walls and is ubiquitously used by industry. This biopolymer is made by plasma membrane-localized CELLULOSE SYNTHASE (CESA) enzymes. To transit from deposition of a growing primary cell wall to a strong secondary cell wall, xylem cells must remodel the CESA machinery to express a new set of CESA isoforms specific to secondary cell wall synthesis. We outline a detailed framework for how this change in cellulose synthesis occurs. Our work provides the principles for how plants change their capacity to produce cellulose and therefore plant biomass.
