Suberin — a biopolyester forming apoplastic plant interfaces

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2007
Suberized cell walls form physiologically important plant-environment interfaces because they act as barriers that limit water and nutrient transport and protect plants from invasion by pathogens. Plants respond to environmental stimuli by modifying the degree of suberization in root cell walls.

Lignins, Cutins, and Suberins

2011
This chapter examines lignin, which has proven to be a useful chemical biomarker for tracing vascular-plant inputs to aquatic systems. Cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin generally make up >75% of the biomass of woody plant materials. Lignins are a group of macromolecular heteropolymers found in the cell wall of vascular plants that are made up of ...

Hydroxycinnamates in suberin formation

Phytochemistry Reviews, 2009
Hydroxycinnamates are found associated with suberin in several forms: covalently linked to the aliphatic suberin; in the residue after suberin-removal; and in the non-polar extractives of suberized tissues in the form of alkyl ferulates. Suberin-associated hydroxycinnamates have been found mainly as ferulic acid-derivatives, sometimes as feruloylamides

Building lipid barriers: biosynthesis of cutin and suberin

Trends in Plant Science, 2008
Cutin and suberin are the polymer matrices for lipophilic cell wall barriers. These barriers control the fluxes of gases, water and solutes, and also play roles in protecting plants from biotic and abiotic stresses and in controlling plant morphology.

Cutin and suberin monomers are membrane perturbants

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2004
The interaction between cutin and suberin monomers, i.e., omega -hydroxylpalmitic acid, alpha, omega -hexadecanedioic acid, alpha, omega --hexadecanediol, 12-hydroxylstearic acid, and phospholipid vesicles biomimicking the lipid structure of plant cell membranes has been studied by optical and transmission electron microscopy, quasielastic light ...

Birch bark suberin

2008
The European pulp mills produce large amounts of bark as a by-product, about 4.3 Mt/y. Additional amounts are produced at sawmills. Birch outer bark contains about 35% of suberin. Suberin - a natural polyester - can be easily separated and depolymerized leading to the corresponding fatty acids, which are mostly straight chain, even numbered C16-C24 ...

Langmuir monolayers of fractions of cork suberin extract

Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2010
The wide variability in composition and molecular weight of natural polymers has hampered understanding of their physicochemical properties and ultimately their use in noble applications, especially in the cases where surface properties need to be probed at the molecular level.

Waxes, Cutin, and Suberin

2018
Plant waxes consisting of very long-chain, relatively nonpolar lipid molecules are associated primarily with the cuticle which extends in a continuous sheet exterior to the walls of the epidermal cells of aerial tissues. In underground tissues, stems undergoing secondary growth, and wound healing sites, waxes are associated with the suberin matrix, a ...

Vaughn and Lulai: Suberin stains comparison of fluorescent stains for the detection of suberin in potato periderm

American Potato Journal, 1991
Several fluorescent staining procedures to detect suberin in normal periderm of potato were assessed. Among the stains tested, treatment with the alkaloid fluorochrome berberine followed by counterstaining with crystal violet appears to be the most sensitive combination.
