An Ehrlich-inspired retrobiosynthesis of pharmaceutical scaffolds
2025-11-11
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Brewer’s yeast ( Saccharomyces cerevisiae ) acquires nitrogen from branched-chain and aromatic amino acids via the Ehrlich pathway, generating flavor (fusel) byproducts. Recently, diverting 4-hydroxyphenylacetaldehyde from Ehrlich catabolism of ʟ-tyrosine has enabled microbial production of opioids and other plant benzylisoquinolines. Yet, fusel metabolism is versatile in substrate scope, offer...
