Synthetic biology strategies for microbial biosynthesis of plant natural products

Engineering microbial cell factories for the production of useful plant natural products (PNPs) is a resource-conserving and environmentally-friendly synthesis route. Here, the authors review recent developments that enable engineering of hosts, pathways, and enzymes to make PNPs and PNP derivatives...
