Rebecca Smith authored this brief review of the latest work in the area of lignin monomer transport.

In this schematic lignin monomers may be leaving cells where they are synthesized by several possible routes. Active transport, diffusion directly through the membrane or facilitated by a channel, and conversion to glucoside intermediates may all play a role in monomer transport to the wall where they are ultimately polymerized. |
