Abstract:
Bioactive constituent is the substantial basis of treatment for various diseases by Chinese materia medica (CMM) and also one of the most important substances for the modernization of CMM. Biosynthesis and biotransformation are considered to be one of the mild systems in bio-catalysis with optimal efficiency and selectivity, which play more potential role in the field, such as traditional Chinese medicine. To review and discuss some applications of biosynthesis and biotransformation in the research of CMM and natural medicines and their relationship of modernization of CMM as well. Moreover, a prospect is given exploringly.
