Excited to receive the first batch of lyophilized marine organisms collected from the Northern Atlantic Ocean in collaboration with Dr. Tammy Horton a marine scientiest at National Oceanography Centre. This batch includes tunicates and sea cucumbers.

Happy to share our latest perspective on flavin-dependent halogenases. Kridsadakorn Nook Prakinee discussed reactions and mechanisms of recently discovered halogenases. We also discussed non-native halogenase scaffolds and expansion of halogenase biocatalytic scopes. doi.org/10.1002/cctc.2…

Today in nature we report a systematic strategy to activate & identify gene sets in plants. We identify 8 new genes from the yew tree's Taxol biosynthetic pathway, enabling us to engineer tobacco with 17- & 20-gene pathways to Taxol precursors baccatin III and dBz-deoxy-Taxol. a

Taxol, from yew trees, demonstrates how hard it currently is to find/study valuable gene sets in plants. This blockbuster drug (billions/yr for 25yr) has helped millions of ovarian, breast and other cancer patients. But we still source this molecule from plant tissue because (1)
