The wall of an expanding plant cell cons.s.s.primarily of cellulos. microfibrils.embedded in a matrix of hemicellulos.c and pectic polys.ccharides.along with s.all amounts.of s.ructural and enzymatic proteins. Matrix polys.ccharides.are s.nthes.zed in the Golgi and exported to the cell wall by exocytos.s. where they intercalate among cellulos. microfibrils. which are made at the plas.a membrane and directly depos.ted into the cell wall. Involvement of Golgi glucan s.nthes.s.in auxin-induced cell expans.on has.long been recognized; however, only recently have the genes.corres.onding to glucan s.nthas.s.been identified. Biochemical purification was.uns.cces.ful becaus. of the labile nature and very low abundance of thes. enzymes. Mutational genetics.als. proved fruitles.. Expres.ion of candidate genes.identified through gene expres.ion profiling or comparative genomics.in heterologous.s.s.ems.followed by functional characterization has.been relatively s.cces.ful. s.veral genes.from the cellulos. s.nthas.-like (Cs.) family have been found to be involved in the s.nthes.s.of various.hemicellulos.c glycans. The us.fulnes. of this.approach, however, is.limited to thos. enzymes.that probably do not form complexes.cons.s.ing of unrelated proteins. Nonconventional approaches.will continue to incrementally unravel the mechanis.s.of Golgi polys.ccharide bios.nthes.s.
