Overview

Paul Dupree is affiliated with the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom and specializes in research focused on plant science, particularly the study of polysaccharides and plant cell walls. Their academic contributions span key areas such as agricultural and biological sciences, engineering, as well as biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology.

Their extensive work covers several interrelated subfields that include plant science, biomedical engineering, molecular biology, biomaterials, and food science. Dupree's research topics reflect a focus on polysaccharides and plant cell walls, biofuel production and bioconversion, plant nutrient uptake and metabolism, advanced cellulose research studies, polysaccharides composition and applications, lignin and wood chemistry, and enzyme production and characterization.

Among their recent publications are:

  • Cell wall remodeling under salt stress: Insights into changes in polysaccharides, feruloylation, lignification, and phenolic metabolism in maize (2020, Plant Cell & Environment)
  • Three Decades of Advances in Arabinogalactan-Protein Biosynthesis (2020, Frontiers in Plant Science)
  • Calcium Binding by Arabinogalactan Polysaccharides Is Important for Normal Plant Development (2020, The Plant Cell)
  • Golgi-localized putative S-adenosyl methionine transporters required for plant cell wall polysaccharide methylation (2022, Nature Plants)
  • Importance of Water in Maintaining Softwood Secondary Cell Wall Nanostructure (2021, Biomacromolecules)

Dupree has frequently collaborated with several co-authors, including Theodora Tryfona, Yoshihisa Yoshimi, Li Yu, Alberto Echevarría-Poza, and Xiaolan Yu. This collaboration indicates a network of closely associated researchers contributing to related scientific topics.

Their work has been published in various scientific venues, with frequent appearances in:

  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • New Phytologist
  • Frontiers in Plant Science
  • The Plant Journal
