1. **Comprehensive Gene Identification**: -The study identified 71 genes involved in paclitaxel biosynthesis, including GGPPS, T5aOH, T13aOH, and TAT, all located within gene clusters on chromosome 9. Additionally, novel genes, such as T10bOH-like and T5aOH-like, were identified in the biosynthetic pathway, expanding the known repertoire of enzymes involved in paclitaxel production. These discoveries lay the groundwork for further exploration into their precise functions and potential roles in optimizing paclitaxel production.
