Paul Dupree

Paul Dupree is a Fellow at the University of Cambridge, affiliated with the School of Biological Sciences. His research focuses on plant cell biology, with particular emphasis on plant cell walls, polysaccharide synthesis, glycobiology, and carbohydrate active enzymes. The Dupree Group investigates the biosynthesis and function of polysaccharide components of the plant cell wall. His work employs techniques such as glycan analysis, plant reverse genetics, enzyme assays, transcriptomics, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR).

Paul Dupree is a researcher at the University of Cambridge, specializing in plant biochemistry with a focus on plant cell walls, polysaccharides, glycosyltransferases, and cellulose. His work explores the structural and functional aspects of plant cell wall components, including the biosynthesis and interactions of cellulose, hemicelluloses, and lignin. Dupree's research also investigates the role of glycosyltransferases in the formation of complex polysaccharides and their implications for plant development and biomass degradation. His studies contribute to understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying cell wall architecture and its impact on plant physiology and biotechnology.
