Figure 1From: Enhanced limonene production by optimizing the expression of limonene biosynthesis and MEP pathway genes in E. coliEngineered pathway for (−)-limonene biosynthesis in E. coli. (−)-Limonene was biosynthesized via glycolysis, the endogenous MEP pathway in E. coli and the exogenous limonene biosynthesis pathway. DXS: 1-Deoxy-d-xylulose-5-phosphate synthase; IDI: Isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase.Back to article page
