In this paper, an original strategy is employed to biosynthesize the isoprene by heterologously co-expressing the Saccharomyces cerevisiae MVA pathway and isoprene synthase (IspS) from Populus alba in the Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) strain, which was screened from three different IspS enzymes. The finally genetic strain YJM13 harboring the MVA pathway and ispS(Pa) gene could accumulate isoprene up to 2.48 mg/l and 532 mg/l under the flask and fed-batch fermentation conditions, respectively, which is about three times and five times to the control strain. The result proves to be higher than that in the report documents. In this way, a potential production system for isoprene from renewable sources via the MVA pathway in E. coli has been provided.

Santalum album is an economically important plant in the craft, spices and medicine industries. The main chemical constituents found in sandalwood essential oils are sesquiterpenes. 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl monoacyl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGR) is one of the rate-limiting enzymes required for the synthesis of sandal sesquiterpenes, but there are no studies on the HMGR gene in S.

To explore the difference in metabolism and transcription between seeds experiencing space flight and ground seeds after morphological post ripening, this study utilized ginseng seeds experiencing space flight and ground seeds as materials. Metabolomics and transcriptomics analyses were conducted using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(UPLC-MS) and high-throughput transcriptome sequencing(RNA-seq) technologies, so as to identify differential terpenoid metabolites, differential endogenous hormones, and differentially expressed genes. The results showed that through metabolomics analysis, a total of 22 differential terpenoid metabolites were identified in the experimental and control groups, including chikusetsusaponin FK_7, ginsenoside F_2, ginseno-side K, majoroside R_1, ginsenoside Re_5, 12-hydroxyabietic acid, etc; through transcriptomics analysis, 15 differential terpenoid metabolism-related differentially expressed genes were identified in the experimental and control groups, including FCase, AACT, PMK, etc, and these genes were integrated into the pathway based on the MEP and MVA.

(-)-α-Bisabolol exhibits analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and skin-soothing properties and is widely applied in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. The use of plant essential oil distillation or chemical synthesis to produce (-)-α-bisabolol is both inefficient and unsustainable. Currently, the microbial production of (-)-α-bisabolol mainly relies on and as chassis strains; however, high concentrations of (-)-α-bisabolol have certain toxicity to the strain.

Triterpenoids are natural products found in plants that exhibit industrial and agricultural importance. Triterpenoids are typically synthesized through two main pathways: the mevalonate (MVA) and methylerythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) pathways. They then undergo structural diversification with the help of squalene cyclases (OSCs), cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s), UDP glycosyltransferases (UGTs), and acyltransferases (ATs).
