Iso-Seq analysis of the Taxus cuspidata transcriptome reveals the complexity of Taxol biosynthesis
Abstract Background Taxus cuspidata is well known worldwide for its ability to produce Taxol, one of the top-selling natural anticancer drugs. However, current Taxol production cannot match the increasing needs of the market, and novel strategies should be considered to increase the supply of Taxol....
