The cinnamate/monolignol pathway

Phytochemistry Reviews, 2009
The cinnamate/monolignol pathway provides precursors for various phenylpropanoid compounds including lignins, lignans, neolignans, p-hydroxycinnamate esters, coumarins, suberins, flavonoids, stilbenes and so on. Therefore, the pathway plays the central role in plant secondary metabolism.

Metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli for microbial synthesis of monolignols

Metabolic Engineering, 2017
Monolignols are important plant metabolites involved in lignin biosynthesis. Their derivatives exhibit various physiological and pharmaceutical functions. Here, efficient enzymes were selected to construct p-coumaryl alcohol biosynthetic pathway and the titer reached 501.8±41.4mg/L under optimized conditions. The pathway was further extended to produce

Fragmentation of Woody Lignocellulose into Primary Monolignols and Their Derivatives

ACS Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering, 2019
Lignin, which is biosynthesized through oxidative radical polymerization from primary monolignols during plant growth, represents the most abundant source of renewable aromatic resources.

Systematic synthesis and identification of monolignol pathway metabolites

New Phytologist
SummaryMonolignol serves as the building blocks to constitute lignin, the second abundant polymer on Earth. Despite two decades of diligent efforts, complete identification of all metabolites in the currently proposed monolignol biosynthesis pathway has proven elusive. This limitation also hampers their potential application.

The monolignol pathway contributes to the biosynthesis of volatile phenylpropenes in flowers

New Phytologist, 2014
Summary Volatile phenylpropenes play important roles in the mediation of interactions between plants and their biotic environments. Their biosynthesis involves the elimination of the oxygen functionality at the side‐chain of monolignols and competes with lignin formation for monolignol utilization.

On the role of the monolignol γ-carbon functionality in lignin biopolymerization

Phytochemistry, 2009
In order to investigate the importance of the monomeric gamma-carbon chemistry in lignin biopolymerization and structure, synthetic lignins (dehydrogenation polymers; DHP) were made from monomers with different degrees of oxidation at the gamma-carbon, i.e., carboxylic acid, aldehyde and alcohol.

Fluorescence-Tagged Monolignols: Synthesis, and Application to Studying In Vitro Lignification

Biomacromolecules, 2011
Fluorescence-tagged coniferyl alcohols, coniferyl alcohol γ-coupled by ethylenediamine spacers to dimethylaminocoumarin or nitrobenzofuran fluorophores, were tested as photoprobes to study the oxidase-mediated polymerization of monolignols. The fluorescent coniferyl alcohol derivatives readily underwent peroxidase-catalyzed in vitro copolymerization ...

First synthesis of (1,2-13C2)-monolignol glucosides

Tetrahedron Letters, 2004
Abstract The monolignol glucosides (1,2-13C2)-p-glucocoumaryl alcohol, (1,2-13C2)-coniferin and (1,2-13C2)-syringin, and the glucosides of (1,2-13C2)-p-coumaric, (1,2-13C2)-ferulic and (1,2-13C2)-sinapic acids were synthesized by condensation of the corresponding aldehydes with (1,2,3-13C3)-malonic acid.
