“…Another half-size ABC transporter, AtABCG11, might also be involved in exporting suberin precursors because roots in silenced Arabidopsis thaliana lines contained reduced amounts of aliphatic suberin components (Panikashvili et al, 2011). Recently, Shanmugarajah et al (2019) suggested that AtABCG1 contributes to suberin precursor export because it traffics C 24 α,ω-diacids and C 26 fatty acids and alcohols-suberin building blocks-in roots and in vitro. Taken together, a set of halfsize ABC transporters has been identified to export suberin precursors in roots, suggesting a functional redundancy.…”

The plant apoplast contains the four hydrophobic polymer, lignin, suberin, cutin, and cutan, that are crucial for stress resistance, controlling solute diffusion, and strengthening the cell wall. Some of these polymers are widely used in industry and daily life products, such as all wood-containing goods (lignin) and wine cork (suberin). Despite the importance of these polymers, several aspects of their formation remain unknown. This mini review highlights technical bottlenecks in the current research and summarizes recent insights into the precursor transmembrane transport, an essential step in the polymer formation. We also briefly discuss how some of the remaining knowledge gaps can be closed and how a better understanding of these biopolymers will benefit other research fields.
