Studies of Sustainable Polymers: Novel Lignins to Reprocessable Polymers
… first topic focuses on fundamental studies of monolignols and lignin, including polymerization and degradation. The second part reports a polymeric material that was crosslinked but can be reprocessed. In order to understand lignin from a molecular level and promote biopolymer conversion, we …

Genetic Improvement of Switchgrass Cell Wall Content, Leaf Angle and Flowering Time
… (4CL) is one of the key enzymes involved in the monolignol biosynthetic pathway. Two homologous 4CL genes, Pv4CL1 and Pv4CL2, were identified in switchgrass. Gene expression patterns and enzymatic activity assays suggested that Pv4CL1 is involved in monolignol biosynthesis. Stable transgenic …

Bio-based composites that mimic the plant cell wall
… mechanical properties. In the second part, monolignol coniferyl alcohol was polymerized in the presence of nanocellulose by the same procedure. A comparison between the polyphenol composite and poly(coniferyl alcohol) (PCA) composite revealed that the propanyl substitution imparted …

Renewable Natural Polymer Thin Films and Their Interactions with Biomacromolecules
… surfaces. The dehydrogenative polymerization of monolignols catalyzed by physically immobilized horseradish peroxidase was investigated using QCM-D and AFM. Results from QCM-D and AFM showed that coniferyl and p-coumaryl alcohol underwent polymerization directly, whereas sinapyl alcohol required …

Dual-omics approach for 3,4-dihydroisocoumarin characterisation from Hydrangea serrata and isolation of polyketide synthases for heterologous expression in Pseudomonas putida KT2440
… as well. Transporter and cell wall stability (monolignol biosynthesis) related genes were differentially expressed like it was shown in a study on H. macrophylla. Interestingly, H. serrata in contrast to Hydrangea macrophylla showed changes in the terpenoid biosynthesis related genes in …

Identifying and characterizing genes and transcription factors involved in coloration of apple fruit
… which they negatively regulate genes involved in monolignol biosynthesis. Functional analysis of MdMYB11 was conducted via ectopic expression in tobacco. Expression of MdMYB11 increased anthocyanin production in tobacco flowers by inducing several anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway genes, …
