bioszintetikus
Bioszintetikus, or biosynthetic, refers to the production of chemical compounds through biological systems or enzymes that perform assembly steps similar to natural biosynthesis. It encompasses both natural biosynthetic pathways found in living organisms and engineered pathways created to produce new or enhanced products. In industrial settings biosynthesis can take place inside living cells (in vivo) or in cell-free systems where purified enzymes drive the synthesis (in vitro).
In living cells, enzymes catalyze sequential reactions that convert simple precursors into complex molecules. Scientists use
Applications of biosynthetic approaches span pharmaceuticals, flavors and fragrances, nutraceuticals, and materials. Notable examples include engineered
Challenges include the complexity of metabolic networks, product toxicity to host organisms, productivity and cost barriers,
