Cytosolic lipid droplets as engineered organelles for production and accumulation of terpenoid biomaterials in leaves

Cytosolic lipid droplets are ER-derived organelles that accumulate in seeds to fuel germination. Here, Sadre et al. show that by boosting lipid production and anchoring key terpenoid biosynthetic enzymes to the droplet surface, an efficient terpenoid production platform can be established in leaves.
