Biosynthesis and function of cutin and the cuticle
Cuticularization - the formation of a surface plaster-like layer of cutin.
A layer of cutin, the cuticle, is also deposited on the outer surface.
Epidermal cells secrete a waxy substance (cutin) that forms a cuticle impermeable to water.
Cutin is the main component of the cuticle that covers plants' leaves.
Some pathogens can hydrolyze the cutin polymer into monomers which then act as elicitors of plant defense responses.
They resemble parenchyma but the outer wall is often thickened and impregnated with cutin, a substance largely impervious to water.
They are present at low levels (< 5%) in plant cutin, except in Arabidopsis thaliana where their content can be higher than 50%.[6]
Plant cuticle is more prone to preservation if it contains cutan, rather than cutin.[23]
On the surface, the cutin is covered with a film and epicuticular wax crystals that give the leaf a more or less brilliant appearance.
At first, the enzyme looked similar to one evolved by many kinds of bacteria to break down cutin, a natural polymer used by plants as a protective layer.

The structure of the enzyme is similar to bacteria that can break down cutin—a natural polymer used as a protective coating by plants.
Polyesters include naturally occurring chemicals, such as in the cutin of plant cuticles, as well as synthetics through step-growth polymerization such as polybutyrate.
