Overview

Biosynthesis is the process by which living organisms convert simple molecules into complex, biologically active molecules. It is the basis of all biological activity and important for sustaining life on Earth. Biosynthesis has many applications in medicine, agriculture, nutrition and biotechnology. It is used to produce pharmaceuticals and other health care products, to create new biofuels and to create higher yielding crops. Biosynthesis is also used to produce food and beverage additives, cosmetics, fragrances and other consumer products. Understanding and manipulating biosynthesis can help us to better understand the biology of organisms, develop therapies and cures for diseases, improve food production and create new, sustainable and environmentally safe products.
