Excavating the functionally crucial active-site residues of the DXS protein of Bacillus subtilis by exploring its closest homologues

Abstract Background To achieve a high yield of terpenoid-based therapeutics, 1-deoxy-d-xylulose-5-phosphate (DXP) pathway has been significantly exploited for the production of downstream enzymes. The DXP synthase (DXS) enzyme, the initiator of this pathway, is pivotal for the convergence of carbon...
