Optimization of Pinocembrin Biosynthesis in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>
Marta Tous Mohedano, Jiwei Mao, Yun Chen
Abstract
. Finally, we demonstrated that pinocembrin-producing strains could be further engineered to generate 25 mg/L chrysin, another interesting flavone. The strains generated in this study will facilitate the production of flavonoids through the pinocembrin biosynthetic pathway.
