Abstract Background Bast fibres from the phloem tissues of flax are scientifically interesting and economically useful due in part to a dynamic system of secondary cell wall deposition. To better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the process of cell wall development in flax we extracted proteins from individually dissected phloem fibres . individual cells at an early stage of secondary cell wall development and compared these extracts to protein extracts from surrounding non-fibre cells of the cortex using fluorescent DiGE labels and 2D-gel electrophoresis with identities assigned to some proteins by mass spectrometry. Results The abundance of many proteins in fibres was notably different from the surrounding non-fibre cells of the cortex with approximately 13 of the 1 850 detectable spots being significantly fold p enriched in fibres. Following mass spectrometry we assigned identity to 114 spots of which 51 were significantly enriched in fibres. We observed that a K channel subunit annexins porins secretory pathway components P-amylase P-galactosidase and pectin and galactan biosynthetic .
