Plant cell wall biosynthesis is a complex process involving various chemical reactions that result in the formation of a dynamic and structurally diverse matrix. This matrix plays crucial roles in plant growth, development, and defense. This review delves into the chemical reactions involved in synthesizing the primary components of plant cell walls, including cellulose, hemicellulose, pectin, and lignin. We explore the enzymatic pathways and regulatory mechanisms that govern these biosynthetic processes and discuss recent advancements in our understanding of plant cell wall biosynthesis through biochemical and genetic studies.
