A method, computer-readable medium, and system for identifying one or more metabolites associated with a disease, comprising: comparing gene expression data from diseased cells to gene expression data from control cells in order to deduce genes that are differentially-regulated in the diseased cells relative to the control cells; based on enzyme function and pathway data for all human metabolites that utilize the genes that are differentially-regulated in the disease cells, identifying one or more metabolites whose intracellular levels are higher or lower in diseased cells than in control cells, and thereby associating the one or more metabolites with the disease.

Sesquiterpene lactones (STLs) are characteristic natural products in Asteraceae, but the biochemistry and evolution of STLs in Asteraceae remain unexplored at the molecular level. The present invention relates to gene and protein sequences for costunolide synthases, with exemplary sequences from Asteraceae. Recombinant microorganisms containing these genes, and methods of their use, also are provided.

polymerizes lipid II into peptidoglycan and is one of the most favorable targets because of its vital role in peptidoglycan synthesis. Described in this study is a practical enzymatic method for the synthesis of lipid II, coupled with cofactor regeneration, to give the product in a 50–70 % yield. This development depends on two key steps: the overexpression of MraY for the synthesis of lipid I and the
