Publication number: 20190194706Abstract: The invention discloses novel methods for biosynthesis of forskolin and other oxidised 13R-MOs. Oxidised 13R-MO may be valuable 011 its own account or as precursors for production of forskolin. In particular, the invention provides methods of producing an oxidised 13R-manoyl oxide (13R-MO) comprising the steps of providing a host organism comprising a heterologous nucleic acid encoding an enzyme capable of catalysing hydroxylation of 13R-MO and or oxidised 13R-MO at the 9 position, wherein said oxidised 13R-MO carries a —H at the 9-position and incubating said host organism in the presence of I3R-MO under conditions allowing growth of said host organism. The invention also discloses materials for use in said methods, in particular the invention provides the enzyme CYP76AH16.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 5, 2015Publication date: June 27, 2019Inventors: Johan Andersen-Ranberg, Eirini Pateraki
