摘要
Significant advances have been made concerning the biosynthesis, regulation and genetic manipulation of plant natural products. These include insights into the structural biology of isoprenoid cyclization and polyketide condensation reactions, a better understanding of the molecular biology of plant cytochrome P450s and O-methyltransferases, acid new information on the effects of natural products on human health.
