Etoposide, a topoisomerase inhibitor, is used to treat various cancers. However, etoposide isn't that easy to get. Its precursor comes from the very slow-growing mayapple plant. Lau and Sattely used bioinformatics, heterologous enzyme expression, and kinetic characterization, to work out the pathway that makes the precursor in mayapple (see the Perspective by O'Connor). They then successfully transplanted the full biosynthetic pathway into tobacco plants.
依托泊苷是一种拓扑异构酶抑制剂,用于治疗各种癌症。然而,依托泊苷并不容易获得。它的前体来自生长缓慢的五味子植物。Lau和Sattely利用生物信息学、异源酶表达和动力学表征,研究了五味子中制造前体的途径(参见O'Connor的观点)。然后,他们成功地将完整的生物合成途径移植到烟草植物中。
