Xyloglucan endotransglucosylase

Xyloglucan endotransglucosylase (XET) is an apoplastic enzyme found across the plant kingdom. The enzyme catalyzes the endotransglucosylation of two xyloglucan polysaccharides, effectively 'stitching' them together.[1]

Function in planta

XET is thought to promote cell expansion by breaking the xyloglucan cross-links between cellulose microfibrils before reforming them, potentially now linked to another microfibril.

gollark: That is NOT what I asked you to do.

gollark: <@481991918008664095> Tell Gibson he is three (3) bees.

gollark: Hi "gib"son.

gollark: <@481991918008664095> is several bees, but in a good way.

gollark: Please use <#733816666089062511> or you'll upset remy.
