Epr Imaging Of Sinapyl Alcohol And Its Application To The Study Of Plant Cell Wall Lignification

In bioimaging, bioorthogonal chemistry is most often used to visualize chemical reporters by fluorescence in their native environment. Herein, we show that TEMPO-based probes can be ligated to monolignol reporters by Diels-Alder chemistry in plant cell walls, paving the way for the study of lignification by EPR spectroscopy and imaging.
