title: Structural Analysis of Cell Wall Polysaccharides Using PACE.
abstract: The plant cell wall is composed of many complex polysaccharides. The composition and structure of the polysaccharides affect various cell properties including cell shape, cell function and cell adhesion. PACE (Polysaccharide Analysis using Carbohydrate gel Electrophoresis) uses a simple, rapid technique to analyze polysaccharide quantity and structure (Goubet et al., Anal Biochem 300:53-68, 2002).
