Combination of Entner-Doudoroff pathway with MEP increases isoprene production in engineered Escherichia coli. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Embden-Meyerhof pathway (EMP) in tandem with 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate pathway (MEP) is commonly used for isoprenoid biosynthesis in E. coli. However, this combination has limitations as EMP generates an imbalanced distribution of pyruvate and ...

Methylerythritol Phosphate Pathway of Isoprenoid Biosynthesis [PDF]
Annual Review of Biochemistry, 2013 Isoprenoids are a class of natural products with more than 55,000 members. All isoprenoids are constructed from two precursors, isopentenyl diphosphate and its isomer dimethylallyl diphosphate. Two of the most important discoveries in isoprenoid biosynthetic studies in recent years are the elucidation of a second isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway [the ...

Isoprenoid biosynthesis in the diatom Haslea ostrearia [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2018 Summary Diatoms are eukaryotic, unicellular algae that are responsible for c. 20% of the Earth's primary production. Their dominance and success in contemporary oceans have prompted investigations on their distinctive metabolism and physiology. One metabolic pathway that remains largely unexplored in diatoms is isoprenoid biosynthesis, which is ...

Combining genotype improvement and statistical media optimization for isoprenoid production in E. coli. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Isoprenoids are a large and diverse class of compounds that includes many high value natural products and are thus in great demand. To meet the increasing demand for isoprenoid compounds, metabolic engineering of microbes has been used to produce ...

Investigations of the Evolved Molecular Basis for Terpenoid Biosynthesis in Marine Sponges
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Confirming and extending a previous observation in another Bubarida sponge, genomic and functional analyses of A. cavernosa reveal that sponges retain the mevalonate pathway and employ single α‐domain T1TSs and UbiA‐type TSs for terpenoid biosynthesis. The absence of T1TSs clustering with other biosynthetic genes tentatively suggests, based on limited ...

Biosynthesis of Isoprenoid Precursors in Arabidopsis
, 2012 Isoprenoids are the most functionally and structurally diverse group of plant metabolites reported to date. Many of them participate in essential processes, like respiration (ubiquinone), photosynthesis (carotenoids, chlorophylls, plastoquinone), and regulation of growth and development (cytokinins, brassinosteroids, gibberellins, abscisic acid ...

Exploring Drug Targets in Isoprenoid Biosynthetic Pathway for Plasmodium falciparum
Biochemistry Research International, 2014 Emergence of rapid drug resistance to existing antimalarial drugs in Plasmodium falciparum has created the need for prediction of novel targets as well as leads derived from original molecules with improved activity against a validated drug target.
