Extensin is arguably the most abundant protein on the planet. This fact alone warrants a page dedicated to extensins. I will be providing additional factual information in the next few days. Dlamport 20:36, 28 June 2007 (UTC)dlamport[reply]

Yeah, right now all we have is the guy's phone number (I assume that's a phone number) which shouldn't be in Wikipedia. With some factual information and some sources, it could be a good article. Useight 20:48, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's not a phone #, but actually page #'s referenced by the inline citations. Dlamport 21:38, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is an acceptable stub, and quite certainly not speediable.--Anthony.bradbury^"talk" 22:09, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Extensin is arguably the most abundant protein on the planet." Arguably is correct. Try and say that to Rubisco fans. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.138.212.90 (talk) 23:19, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The cell wall typically makes up 30% of the cell dry weight, and extensin can contribute 10-20% of the dry weight of cell walls. By my calculations, this implies 3-6% of the cell dry weight, i.e. 30-60 mg/ g (DW). Although admittedly, extensin is not present in all cell walls, how does that compare to Rubisco content?Apoplast (talk) 14:33, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
