Diversity‐Oriented Production of Metabolites Derived from Chorismate and Their Use in Organic Synthesis

Biosynthesis as a model: Based on the branched structure of biosynthetic pathways, such as the shikimate pathway, the selective bioproduction of a set of diverse metabolites has been achieved by means of metabolic engineering (see scheme). A scale-up for preparative purposes was performed, resulting in high product titers and yields from renewable resources.
