Biosynthesis of Natural flavanones in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Article Abstract:

A four-step flavanone biosynthetic pathway was constructed and introduced into Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The recombinant yeast was fed with phenylpropanoid acids and produced the flavanones naringenin and pinocembrin 62 and 22 times more efficiently compared to previously reported recombinant prokaryotic strains.

Identification and characterization of a novel biotin biosynthesis gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Article Abstract:

A report showing that BIO6 is a new gene involved in step before 7-keto-8-amino-pelargonic acid (KAPA) synthesis of the biotin synthesis pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is presented. Results reveal that the BIO6 gene is a novel biotin within biosynthesis gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
