Expansins are fundamental agents of plant growth and adaptation, enabling cell walls to expand and remodel through unique non-enzymatic mechanisms. This review elucidates the structural biology, evolutionary history, and physiological versatility of these essential proteins. Characterised by a conserved two-domain arch...
