Amorpha-4,11-diene synthase(ADS)catalyzes the first committed step in the artemisinin biosynthetic pathway,which is the first catalytic reaction enzymatically and genetically characterized in artemisinin biosynthesis....Amorpha-4,11-diene synthase(ADS)catalyzes the first committed step in the artemisinin biosynthetic pathway,which is the first catalytic reaction enzymatically and genetically characterized in artemisinin biosynthesis.The advent of ADS in Artemisia annua is considered crucial for the emergence of the specialized artemisinin biosynthetic pathway in the species.Microbial production of amorpha-4,11-diene is a breakthrough in metabolic engineering and synthetic biology.Recently,numerous new techniques have been used in ADS engineering;for example,assessing the substrate promiscuity of ADS to chemoenzymatically produce artemisinin.In this review,we discuss the discovery and catalytic mechanism of ADS,its application in metabolic engineering and synthetic biology,as well as the role of sesquiterpene synthases in the evolutionary origin of artemisinin.展开更多
