Isoprenoid biosynthesis is a fundamental metabolic process that produces a vast array of naturally occurring compounds essential for cellular structure and function. In most eukaryotes, the mevalonate ...

The Plant Cell, Vol. 16, No. 1 (Jan., 2004), pp. 144-156 (13 pages) Plants synthesize an astonishing diversity of isoprenoids, some of which play essential roles in photosynthesis, respiration, and ...

Amyris. has filed a patent for methods to efficiently produce isoprenoids using biosynthetic pathways, nucleic acids, enzymes, vectors, and genetically modified host cells. The patent also covers ...

The “Isoprenoids” forum became quickly known as one of the pioneering channels in the 1960s and 1970s that surmounted the very high Arrhenius barrier, “The Iron Curtain”, that restricted contacts ...
