Biosynthesis and Genetic Tuning of Guanine Crystals via Metabolic Engineering of Yeast
ABSTRACT Purine crystals, such as guanine, generate diverse optical phenomena in animals and function as important nitrogen‐storage reservoirs in microalgae. Here, we demonstrate the formation of guanine crystals in Brewer's yeast. Whilst guanine crystals do not naturally contrib...
