Synthetic Biology of Prenylated Stilbenoids: Biosynthetic Pathway, Prenyltransferases, and Biomanufacturing Strategies.

Prenylated stilbenoids are valuable nutraceutical candidates found in dietary plants. Compared to their nonprenylated counterparts, they often exhibit enhanced bioactivities, which are attributed to the increased lipophilicity conferred by the prenyl groups, facilitating their partitioning into cell membranes and inter...
