  • Untargeted metabolomics and coexpression analysis uncovers the complete biosynthetic pathway of a previously unknown Arabidopsis metabolite, 4-hydroxyindole-3-carbonyl nitrile (4-OH-ICN), which harbours cyanogenic functionality.

  • Paclitaxel is an important anticancer drug whose biosynthetic pathway reconstruction is hindered by the propensity of heterologously expressed pathway cytochromes P450, including taxadiene 5α-hydroxylase (T5αH), to form multiple products. Here, the authors tune the promoter strength for T5αH expression in Nicotiana plants to increase the levels of paclitaxel precursor taxadien-5α-ol by three-fold and reconstitute the six step early biosynthetic pathway of paclitaxel.

  • An approach that combines single-nucleus RNA sequencing and multiplexed perturbation identifies genes that enable the biosynthesis of direct precursors of the anti-cancer drug Taxol, whose current production involves a laborious extraction process from yew trees.

  • Redirecting plant diterpene biosynthesis from the chloroplast to the cytosolic, high-flux mevalonate pathway increases intermediate and product titers to support the elucidation and reconstitution of momilactone biosynthesis.

  • The identification and characterization of two cytochromes P450 from cabbage establish the biochemical basis for synthesizing brassinin-based phytoalexins, using two different routes of S-heterocyclization to construct these important vegetable compounds.

  • This paper discloses a new class of chiral catalysts that initiate olefin metathesis with exceptional efficiency and enantioselectivity. These new catalysts bear a stereogenic metal centre and carry only monodentate ligands; the molybdenum-based complexes are rendered non-racemic by a stereoselective ligand exchange process involving an enantiomerically pure aryloxide, a class of ligands rarely used in asymmetric catalysis.

  • The biosynthesis and secretion of redox-active coumarins sideretin and fraxetin in Arabidopsis thaliana enables the plant to acquire iron under nutrient-limited conditions and provides a blueprint for the use of related compounds in other eudicots.

  • Khlystov et al. introduce a new plant-based system (N. benthamiana) as a platform to rapidly produce a diverse array of recombinant fungal lignin-degrading enzymes. This study provides an initial framework to better understand the coordinated efforts of various lignin-degrading enzymes during fungal lignin deconstruction in nature.
