Implementation of novel synthetic pathways into metabolic network is challenging. Empowered by protein engineering and synthetic biology, a whole-cell transformation process is reported to utilize engineered 2-pyrone synthase with novel reactivity in metabolic networks to convert carboxylic acids and intracellular malonyl-CoA directly into the pyrone products with high yields, catalytic efficiency and good selectivity
将新的合成途径实施到代谢网络中具有挑战性。据报道,在蛋白质工程和合成
生物学的支持下,全细胞转化过程利用在代谢网络中具有新颖反应性的工程化 2-
吡喃酮合酶,将
羧酸和细胞内丙二酰
