Скачать или смотреть The Future of Cannabis Production??

Cannabis production is a resource-intensive industry that relies heavily on land, water, electricity, pesticides, and harmful organic solvents. But what if there was a more environmentally friendly way to produce THC, the psychoactive compound in cannabis?
Metabolic engineering is a field that explores ways to produce chemicals in organisms that don't normally produce them. Researchers at UC Berkeley have already attempted to make THC in GMO yeast by inserting the genes from the cannabis plant into yeast. While they were able to produce a small amount of THC (a couple of milligrams per liter), the process still needs to be optimized.
Could GMO yeast be the future of THC production?
