Increasing pinosylvin production in Escherichia coli by reducing the expression level of the gene fabI-encoded enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase
Background: The plant secondary metabolite pinosylvin is a polyphenol from the stilbene family, which have positive effects on human health. Biotechnological production is an attractive alternative for obtaining this stilbene. In Escherichia coli, malonyl-CoA is the precursor for both stilbene and f...
