Abstract
- Extraction of many alkaloids from plants provides low and instable yields.
- Microbial cells as alternative alkaloid production systems include bacteria and yeasts.
- Each metabolic step must be optimized for high turnover and low side product formation.
- Production enzymes are recruited from plants, also from microbes, fungi and animals.
