Overview

Review examines metabolic engineering and synthetic biology strategies for Gyrinops agarwood, highlighting complementary avenues to relieve overexploitation of wild trees.

Key Points

To evaluate synthetic biology, metabolic engineering, and computational approaches for the sustainable production of high-value agarwood metabolites derived from Gyrinops species.
Reviewed literature on the biochemical mechanisms underlying agarwood formation, focusing on oxygenated sesquiterpenes and 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromones.
Evaluated the utility of in vitro elicitation systems, computational AI-driven gene discovery tools, and heterologous chassis including Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Yarrowia lipolytica, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, and Nicotiana species.
Identified sesquiterpenes and 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromones as the principal target compounds for reconstitution in engineered microbial and plant host systems.
Established that combining heterologous expression with in silico gene discovery offers a feasible, sustainable alternative to support wild agarwood conservation without replacing traditional cultivation.
