Research Progress on Biosynthetic Pathway of Terpenoids Containing Ginsenoside and the HMGR / 中国生物工程杂志

ABSTRACT

As a model terpenoid,the ginsenoside is one of Panax ginseng’s main effective components.An overview of biosynthetic pathway of terpenoids and the HMG-CoA reductases was presented.The massive research materials indicated that the HMG-CoA reductases is the first key enzyme of the regulation of the mevalonic acid way,which has some reference value to promote the research on the biosynthetic pathway and the regulation of ginsenoside.
