Genetic Adaptation of a Mevalonate Pathway Deficient Mutant in Staphylococcus aureus
In this study we addressed the question how a mevalonate (MVA)-auxotrophic Staphylococcus aureusΔmvaS mutant can revert to prototrophy. This mutant couldn’t grow in the absence of MVA.

The isoprenoid alcohol pathway, a synthetic route for isoprenoid biosynthesis [PDF]
Significance We have demonstrated the design, prototyping, and implementation of a non-natural route to isoprenoid biosynthesis, termed the isoprenoid alcohol (IPA) pathway. Opposed to working within the confines of native metabolic pathways, our approach of utilizing all available biochemical reactions identified a synthetic route to

Microbial monoterpene transformations – A review
Isoprene and monoterpenes constitute a significant fraction of new plant biomass. Emission rates into the atmosphere alone are estimated to be over 500 Tg per year. These natural hydrocarbons are mineralized annually in similar quantities.
