  In the present work, we investigate how structural defects in graphene can
change its transport properties. In particular, we show that breaking of the
sublattice symmetry in a graphene monolayer overcomes the Klein effect, leading
to confined states of massless Dirac fermions. Experimentally, this corresponds
to chemical bonding of foreign atoms to carbon atoms, which attach themselves
to preferential positions on one of the two sublattices. In addition, we
consider the scattering off a tensor barrier, which describes the rotation of
the honeycomb cells of a given region around an axis perpendicular to the
graphene layer. We demonstrate that in this case the intervalley mixing between
the Dirac points emerges, and that Klein tunneling occurs.
