you misunderstand me.
I think.
but out of curiosity why is it that you think I need you to think chemistry?
You mistake my affirmation of you brief note, outline…but with the caveats , “you” need to check the substrate specificities of both down stream synthases before making the “three fold way” hypothesis?
I am familiar with the pathways.
Are there any papers on the biochemical synthesi of spherophorolic acid?
" I would have to brush up on the pathways but it seems to be necessary to engineer the active sites (binding pockets) of at least two enzymes in the olivetol/spheropherol pathway, encouraging C7 and suppressing wild-type C5"
Yes, that paper, it would save me the time of looking it up.
thank you…
