mpXsn method reveals eight novel enzymes for accelerated cancer drug production
Stanford University researchers report the discovery of eight previously unknown genes that, when expressed in tobacco leaves, reconstitute the Taxol precursor baccatin III at levels matching its natural abundance in yew needles. The find could accelerate the manufacture of a much-needed cancer drug.
