Leveraging Synthetic Biology Strategies for Flavonoid Production in Cell Factories
Flavonoids are a large group of naturally occurring secondary metabolites with a polyphenolic structure and are well known for their beneficial effects on health. Flavonoids play multiple roles in plants, functioning as photoreceptors, antioxidants, antimicrobials, feeding deterrents, visual attractants, and light filters. In humans, flavonoids offer a
