P4B: A novel probe to study cellulose synthesis and microtubule dynamics

Cellulose is the most abundant biopolymer on Earth and a major component of plant cell walls.In growing cells, cellulose is synthesized at the plasma membrane by cellulose synthase complexes (CSCs), which are assembled in the Golgi apparatus and trafficked to the cell surface (McFarlane et al., 2014).Despite the importance of cellulose in plant growth and development, many aspects of its
