Multi-Scale Characterization And Engineering Of Taxus Suspension Cultures, Sarah A. Wilson
Multi-Scale Characterization And Engineering Of Taxus Suspension Cultures, Sarah A. Wilson
Doctoral Dissertations
Plants produce a diversity of natural products that have commercial applications as flavorings, fragrances, pesticides and pharmaceuticals. These compounds are often the result of specialized metabolic pathways that are unique to plant systems, and have complex structures that make chemical synthesis routes infeasible. This necessitates exploitation of biological production routes. This thesis work presents a multi-scale characterization and engineering approach to understand and manipulate plant cell cultures on the extracellular (culture) and intracellular (metabolic pathway) levels. Studies focus on the commercially relevant suspension culture system Taxus, a medicinal plant species used for production of the FDA-approved anticancer drug paclitaxel. …
