Enhanced cell wall digestibility and immunity in Arabidopsis through targeted modification of xylan structure by heterologous expression of acetyl xylan esterase and xylanases

Abstract Background Xylan, a major component of the secondary cell wall in dicots, is often recalcitrant due to its acetylation and interaction with cellulose and lignin. To fine-tune the xylan structure and improve the processing of lignocellulosic biomass, overexpression of cel...
