28 Summary We are developing an understanding of the catalysts and regulators that provide us with control over lignin The study of Arabidopsis has revealed a previously unknown regulatory circuit for lignin biosynthesis that involves Mediator The dwarfing seen in some lignin-deficient plants can be suppressed genetically, indicating that it is an active proteinmediated process Plants with high H-lignin are viable and could provide novel inputs for the biorefinery Catalytic conversion of lignin into fuels may make more efficient use of biomass
