Visualization of plant cell wall lignification using fluorescence-tagged monolignols
Lignin is an abundant phenylpropanoid polymer produced by the oxidative polymerization of p-hydroxycinnamyl alcohols (monolignols). Lignification, i.e., deposition of lignin, is a defining feature of secondary cell wall formation in vascular plants, and provides an important mechanism for their disease resistance; however, many aspects of the cell wall lignification process remain unclear partl...
متن کاملPlant cell wall lignification and monolignol metabolism
Plants are built of various specialized cell types that differ in their cell wall composition and structure. The cell walls of certain tissues (xylem, sclerenchyma) are characterized by the presence of the heterogeneous lignin polymer that plays an essential role in their physiology. This phenolic polymer is composed of different monomeric units - the monolignols - that are linked together by s...
متن کاملA click chemistry strategy for visualization of plant cell wall lignification.
Bioorthogonal click chemistry was commissioned to visualize the plant cell wall lignification process in vivo. This approach uses chemical reporter-tagged monolignol mimics that can be metabolically incorporated into lignins and subsequently derivatized via copper-assisted or copper-free click reactions.
متن کاملForage Digestibility: The Intersection of Cell Wall Lignification and Plant Tissue Anatomy
Ruminants evolved their multi-compartment digestive tract to effectively process plant material containing large amounts of cell wall material. We rely on forages as the sole or major feed resource for domestic ruminant animal production, even in the grain intensive North American beef and dairy systems. Unfortunately, digestibility of forages is extremely variable and almost always less than g...
متن کاملOxidation of Monolignols by Members of the Berberine Bridge Enzyme Family Suggests a Role in Plant Cell Wall Metabolism*
Plant genomes contain a large number of genes encoding for berberine bridge enzyme (BBE)-like enzymes. Despite the widespread occurrence and abundance of this protein family in the plant kingdom, the biochemical function remains largely unexplored. In this study, we have expressed two members of the BBE-like enzyme family from Arabidopsis thaliana in the host organism Komagataella pastoris. The...
