Use | In 2006, a research team at the University of California, Berkeley reported that they had produced artemisinic acid precursor through the fermentation of engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). In this way, the semi-synthetic artemisinin prepared by microorganisms can be transported, purified and chemically converted into artemisinin. With the help of synthetic biology, an improved mevalonate pathway was used to engineer yeast cells to express Amorpha fruticosa diene synthase and cytochrome P450 oxidase (CYP71AV1), both of which are derived from the engineered bacterium Escherichia coli. Amorpha fruticosa -4,11-diene undergoes three-step oxidation to obtain artemisinin acid. |
bioactive Artemisinic acid (Qing Hao acid) is a sesquiterpene isolated from Artemisia annua. it has a variety of pharmacological activities, such as antimalarial activity, anti-tumor activity, antipyretic effect, antibacterial activity, allelopathy and antilipogenesis effect.
