THINKER-CHINA # A strain engineered that provides enough myrosinase to produce sulforaphane and prevents colorectal cancer # Colorectal cancer is a common malignant tumor in the gastrointestinal tract and a high incidence tumor worldwide. However, after investigation, we realised that cruciferous plants is rich in high concentrations of glucosinolate, it can be hydrolyzed by myrosinase to sulforaphane, sulforaphane has strong anticancer activity and antioxidant capacity which is good at preventing colorectal cancer. ...
