The ARC Centre for Plant Cell Wall Biology will define the regulatory mechanisms that control molecular, enzymic and cellular processes involved in the synthesis, deposition, re-modelling and depolymerisation of cell wall polysaccharides of cereals and grasses. Plant cell walls represent the world's largest renewable carbon resource, but the regulatory mechanisms responsible for their synthesis and assembly are not understood. Key distinguishing features of the Centre will be the international, integrative, and multidisciplinary approach towards addressing major questions in plant biology, its strategy to leverage ARC funding, and its linkages with potential national and international end-users of the fundamental scientific discoveries.

ARC 植物细胞壁生物学中心将定义控制分子、酶和细胞过程的调控机制，这些过程涉及谷物和草类细胞壁多糖的合成、沉积、重塑和解聚。植物细胞壁代表了世界上最大的可再生碳资源，但负责其合成和组装的调节机制尚不清楚。该中心的主要显着特点是采用国际、综合和多学科的方法来解决植物生物学中的重大问题，利用 ARC 资金的战略，以及与基础科学发现的潜在国内和国际最终用户的联系。
