Engineering the Biosynthesis of Daidzein and Genistein with the Red Oleaginous Yeast Rhodotorula toruloides [PDF]
ACS OmegaAbstract Daidzein (DEIN) and genistein (GEIN) are aromatic amino acid (AAAs) derivatives that have various physiological, nutritional, and medical activities. The low abundance in natural sources and structural complexity limit their acquisition through plant extraction and chemical synthesis.

Metabolic Engineering of Oleaginous Yeast Rhodotorula toruloides for Overproduction of Triacetic Acid Lactone [PDF]
Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 2022 Abstract The plant‐sourced polyketide triacetic acid lactone (TAL) has been recognized as a promising platform chemical for the biorefinery industry. However, its practical application was rather limited due to low natural abundance and inefficient cell factories for biosynthesis.
