There is an increasing demand for carotenoids due to their applications in the food, flavor,
pharmaceutical and feed industries, however, the extraction and synthesis of these …

In industrial bioproduction of organic acids, numerous neutralizers are required which
substantially increases production costs and burdens the environment. To address this …

Monoterpenes have an established use in the food and cosmetic industries and have
recently also found application as advanced biofuels. Although metabolic engineering …

The past decades have seen an increasing interest in developing pathways to produce bio-
based chemicals from lignocellulosic biomass and organic waste as renewable resources …

Approaches using metabolic engineering and synthetic biology to overproduce terpenoids,
such as the precursors of taxol and artemisinin, in microbial systems have achieved initial …

Terpenoids (aka isoprenoids) represent the most diverse class of natural products found in
plants, with tens of thousands of reported structures. Plant‐derived terpenoids have a …

The cytochromes P450 (P450s) are probably nature's most versatile enzymes in terms of
both their vast substrate range and the diverse types of molecular transformations performed …

Isoprenoids, often called terpenoids, are the most abundant and highly diverse family of
natural organic compounds. In plants, they play a distinct role in the form of photosynthetic …

Microbial cell factories for terpenoid synthesis form a less expensive and more environment-
friendly approach than chemical synthesis and extraction, and are thus being regarded as …

Cell-free metabolic engineering (CFME) is advancing a powerful paradigm for accelerating
the design and synthesis of biosynthetic pathways. However, as most cell-free biomolecule …
