Redesign and reconstruction of a steviol-biosynthetic pathway for enhanced production of steviol in Escherichia coli

Abstract Background Steviol glycosides such as stevioside have attracted the attention of the food and beverage industry. Recently, efforts were made to produce these natural sweeteners in microorganisms using metabolic engineering. Nonetheless, the steviol titer is relatively low in metabolically e...
