Abstract excerpt
Miltiradiene is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of many important natural diterpene compounds with significant pharmacological activity, including triptolide, tanshinones, carnosic acid and carnosol. Sufficient accumulation of miltiradiene is vital for the production of these medicinal compounds. In this study, comprehensive engineering strategies were applied to construct a high-yielding miltiradiene...
