Artificial biosynthetic pathways are typically assembled and optimized progressively, from earlier to later steps. This commentary highlights the potential of an alternate regressive method for ...

Biosynthetic pathways for secondary metabolites usually make many products, not just one. In this Commentary, we consider why molecular promiscuity might be an evolutionarily advantageous feature ...

Lignans are low molecular weight polyphenolic compounds with important antitumor and antiviral properties. However, their low amounts in medicinal plants and complex structures make sustainable ...

Use precise geolocation data and actively scan device characteristics for identification. This is done to store and access ...

Anabolic – this type of pathway requires energy and is used to build up large molecules from smaller ones (biosynthesis). Catabolic – this type of pathway releases energy and is used to break ...
