Orthogonal monoterpenoid biosynthesis in yeast constructed on an isomeric substrate

Titers of monoterpenoids production in yeast are low due to the fact that the geranyl diphosphate (GPP)-based pathway can redirect metabolic fluxes to growth. Here, the authors build an orthogonal pathway by selecting the cis isomer of GPP as an alternative precursor and achieve high titer monoterpe...
