Nature . 2023 May; 617(7960):403-408. PMID: 37138074
Biosynthesis is an environmentally benign and renewable approach that can be used to produce a broad range of natural and, in some cases, new-to-nature products. However, biology lacks many of...

Di X, Ortega-Alarcon D, Kakumanu R, Iglesias-Fernandez J, Diaz L, Baidoo E, et al.
Plant Commun . 2022 Dec; 4(3):100512. PMID: 36575800
Isoprenoids are a very large and diverse family of metabolites required by all living organisms. All isoprenoids derive from the double-bond isomers isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP), which...

Lin C, Geiselman G, Liu D, Magurudeniya H, Rodriguez A, Chen Y, et al.
Biotechnol Biofuels Bioprod . 2022 Dec; 15(1):145. PMID: 36567331
Background: Lignocellulosic resources are promising feedstocks for the manufacture of bio-based products and bioenergy. However, the inherent recalcitrance of biomass to conversion into simple sugars currently hinders the deployment of...
