Substrate channelling as an approach to cascade reactions.

TL;DR: The incorporation of substrate channelling into synthetic cascades is a rapidly developing concept, and recent examples of the fabrication of cascades with controlled diffusion and flux of intermediates are presented.

De novo production of the flavonoid naringenin in engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae

TL;DR: The results reported in this study demonstrate that S. cerevisiae is capable of de novo production of naringenin by coexpressing the naringENin production genes from A. thaliana and optimization of the flux towards the naredenin pathway.

De novo production of resveratrol from glucose or ethanol by engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae

TL;DR: The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is engineered to produce resveratrol directly from glucose or ethanol via tyrosine intermediate through the biosynthetic pathway, and the supply of the precursor malonyl-CoA is improved by over-expressing a post-translational de-regulated version of the acetyl- CoA carboxylase encoding gene ACC1.

Small molecule activators of sirtuins extend Saccharomyces cerevisiae lifespan

TL;DR: The potent activator resveratrol, a polyphenol found in red wine, lowers the Michaelis constant of SIRT1 for both the acetylated substrate and NAD+, and increases cell survival by stimulating Sirt1-dependent deacetylation of p53.

Synthetic protein scaffolds provide modular control over metabolic flux

TL;DR: In this article, synthetic protein scaffolds bearing interaction domains from metazoan signaling proteins were used to spatially recruit metabolic enzymes in a designable manner, and the modularity of these domains enabled them to optimize the stoichiometry of three mevalonate biosynthetic enzymes recruited to a synthetic complex.

Resveratrol Prolongs Lifespan and Retards the Onset of Age-Related Markers in a Short-Lived Vertebrate

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that food supplementation with resveratrol prolongs lifespan and retards the expression of age-dependent traits in a short-lived vertebrate.
