Harnessing sub-organelle metabolism for biosynthesis of isoprenoids in yeast
Synthetic and Systems Biotechnology, 2020 Current yeast metabolic engineering in isoprenoids production mainly focuses on rewiring of cytosolic metabolic pathway. However, the precursors, cofactors and the enzymes are distributed in various sub-cellular compartments, which may hamper isoprenoid ...
