At the subcellular level, AGPs are localized on the plasma  membrane, in the cell wall, in secretory and endocytotic pathway  organelles, in stylar and root secretions and in the medium of  cultured cells. The widespread distribution of AGPs indicates that  they perform important functions. An expansion of knowledge regarding  AGPs has been initiated and sustained through new experimental  approaches, including the development of monoclonal antibody probes  and cloning of cDNAs corresponding to core polypeptides. Regulated  expression and other evidence points to the involvement of AGPs in  plant reproductive development, pattern formation, and somatic  embryogenesis, as well as in the processes of cell division, cell  expansion, and cell death. AGPs also have an importance to industry.  One example is gum arabic, an exudate from \u003cem\u003eAcacia senegal\u003c\/em\u003e, a  mixture of AGPs and polysaccharides which has unique viscosity and  emulsifying properties that have led to many uses in the food as well  as other industries.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-11-02\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9781461368885\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781461368885\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-4207-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 254cm x178cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 301\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44358682574988,"sku":"9781461368885","price":153.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781461368885.jpg?v=1755111708","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781461368885","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
