  2. Hexokinase II - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexokinase_II

    Hexokinase II, also known as Hexokinase B and HK2, is an enzyme which in humans is encoded by the HK2 gene on chromosome 2. [5] [6] Hexokinases phosphorylate glucose to produce glucose 6-phosphate, the first step in most glucose metabolism pathways. Hexokinase II is the predominant hexokinase form found in skeletal muscle.

  3. Secondary cell wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_cell_wall

    The secondary cell wall is a structure found in many plant cells, located between the primary cell wall and the plasma membrane. The cell starts producing the secondary cell wall after the primary cell wall is complete and the cell has stopped expanding. [ 1 ]

  5. Cell wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_wall

    The secondary cell wall, a thick layer formed inside the primary cell wall after the cell is fully grown. It is not found in all cell types. It is not found in all cell types. Some cells, such as the conducting cells in xylem , possess a secondary wall containing lignin , which strengthens and waterproofs the wall.

  6. Extracellular matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extracellular_matrix

    The cell wall is the relatively rigid structure surrounding the plant cell. The cell wall provides lateral strength to resist osmotic turgor pressure, but it is flexible enough to allow cell growth when needed; it also serves as a medium for intercellular communication. The cell wall comprises multiple laminate layers of cellulose microfibrils ...

  7. Wall-associated kinase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wall-Associated_Kinase

    The association of WAKs with The Plant Cell wall was first compromised by immunolocalization technique using antiserum where epitome of WAK are found to be tightly bound with cell wall fragments so that they can not be separated using detergent, however, WAKs could be released by boiling the walls with SDS, dithiothreitol (a strong thiol reductant), protoplasting enzymes or pectinase.

  8. Size-exclusion chromatography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Size-exclusion_chromatography

    Agarose-based SEC columns used for protein purification on an AKTA FPLC machine. SEC is used primarily for the analysis of large molecules such as proteins or polymers. SEC works by trapping smaller molecules in the pores of the adsorbent ("stationary phase"). This process is usually performed within a column, which typically consists of a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suberin

    Suberin is a lipophilic, complex polyester biopolymer of plants, composed of long-chain fatty acids called suberin acids and glycerol.Suberin, interconnected with cutins and lignins, also complex macromolecules, form a protective barrier in the epidermal and peridermal cell walls of higher plants.
