Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Heterologous expression of cytochrome P450 for fungal natural product biosynthesis has been employed. We succeeded to prepare library of multiple P450-expressed transformants. Using this unique library, we performed the screening the transformants and found various conversion to generate a number of new metabolites although their productions were relatively low.
