From: α-Farnesene production from lipid by engineered Yarrowia lipolytica
Metabolic pathway of α-farnesene synthesis from lipid substrate in Y. lipolytica. Lipid was activated to FA-CoA, which converts to acetyl-CoA through β-oxidation. Acetyl-CoA was transported to cytoplasm and α-farnesene synthesized via the MVA pathway. Here, Erg20 and FS were used by a linker with GGGS amino acid sequence.
