Ergothioneine (EGT) is a naturally occurring derivative of histidine with diverse applications in the medicine, cosmetic, and food industries. Nevertheless, its sustainable biosynthesis faces hurdles due to the limited biosynthetic pathways, complex metabolic network of precursors, and high cost associated with fermentation. Herein, efforts were made to address these limitations first by reconstructing a novel EGT biosynthetic pathway from
