摘要

Abstract

Terpenoids

one of the most diverse and structurally varied natural products in nature

are widely distributed in plants

microbes

and other organisms. Their structural diversity confers significant importance in medicine

food

flavorings

and energy. However

traditional methods of plant extraction and chemical synthesis have limitations in industrial applications. Consequently

microbial cell factories have emerged as an important platform for terpenoid production. Terpene synthases (TPSs) are crucial in determining the structural and functional diversity of terpenoids. This review discussed the origin and classification of TPSs

outlines commonly used TPS mining methods

and summarizes advances in TPS engineering. In addition

it also explores the influence of machine learning on enzyme mining

the existing challenges and the future opportunities alongside cutting-edge technologies.
