Engineering 4-Vinylcatechol Biosynthesis in Escherichia coli Through Host-Enzyme Combination.
De novo biosynthesis of 4-vinylcatechol (VCAT), a valuable bio-based monomer and potent antioxidant, has emerged as a crucial objective due to its profound industrial and pharmacological significance. However, its biosynthesis is frequently hindered by limited precursor availability. In this study, we developed a highl...
