Metabolic engineering for the production of clinically important molecules: Omega-3 fatty acids, artemisinin, and taxol

Driven by requirements for sustainability as well as affordability and efficiency, metabolic engineering of plants and microorganisms is increasingly being pursued to produce compounds for clinical applications. This review discusses three such examples of the clinical relevance of metabolic enginee...
