Abstract
Geranyl pyrophosphate (GPP) is a key intermediate molecule in the bioproduction of thousands of natural products. Currently, natural products are either cultivated from plants, synthesized via complex chemical synthesis strategies, or through cell-based factories also known as biofoundries. However, in order to replicate the process in a cell free environment, numerous enzymes and cofactors must be utilized making this approach costly and unviable. In order to make this process viable, a new approach was needed that uses fewer enzymes and co-factors. As described herein, the present invention demonstrates that it is possible to create GPP from glycerol through a short and concise biosynthetic pathway outside of the cell.
