Engineered strains as living factories: efficient biosynthesis and modification of natural products via synthetic biology and one-pot chemical tandem reactions
This review addresses the central question of how biosynthetic precision and chemical diversification can be coupled when conventional metabolic engineering alone cannot fully overcome low titers, enzyme promiscuity limits, intermediate toxicity, and scale-up heterogeneity.
