Genome-scale Metabolic Modeling Guided Escherichia coli Engineering for De Novo Biosynthesis of Chrysanthemic Acid. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
Genome‐scale metabolic modeling is preceded to the engineered E. coli cell factory for the de novo biosynthesis of biopesticide chrysanthemic acid. The debranching strategy redirects metabolic flux, enhancing precursor and target compound production.
