Metabolic engineering of cucurbitacins in Cucurbita pepo hairy roots

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
In this paper we show that metabolic engineering in Cucurbita pepo hairy roots can be used to both effectively increase and modify cucurbitacins. Cucurbitacins are highly-oxygenated triterpenoids originally described in the Cucurbitaceae family, but have
