Phylogenomics and metabolic engineering reveal a conserved gene cluster in Solanaceae plants for withanolide biosynthesis

Samuel Edward Hakim, Nancy Choudhary, Karan Malhotra…·Jakob Franke

Comparing nine Solanaceae genomes reveals a conserved withanolide gene cluster; three of its P450s, expressed in yeast and N. benthamiana, oxidise 24-methyldesmosterol toward the withanoside V aglycone.
