This review unpacks the accumulated knowledge of the structural bases of the unique properties and capabilities of DMATS-type prenyltransferases (PTs) that make them promising biocatalysts.
Prenylated phenolics are antimicrobials found in liquorice (Glycyrrhiza spp.).
Recent research on the biosynthesis of pyrroloindoline-containing natural products, including studies investigating their biosynthetic mechanisms and engineering biosynthetic pathways to produce novel products.
The review is on synthesis of different classes of isoflavonoids that include isoflavones, isoflavanones, isoflavans, isoflavenes, pterocarpans, rotenoids, coumaronochromones, and coumestans.
A large and diverse family of fungal compounds are those related to the anthraquinone emodin. By viewing this family as a whole and combining our genetic and chemical understanding, we gain detailed insights into their biosynthetic origins.
