Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis deletion of the Aro8 gene stimulates phenylethanol production when combined with other mutations that deregulate aromatic amino acid biosynthesis, i.e. expression of phenylalanine and tyrosine feedback-insensitive DAHP synthase. The resulting engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain produces more than 3 mM phenylethanol from glucose during growth on a simple synthetic medium Saccharomyces cerevisiae

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function mutation in Aro8 leads to substantial changes in the absolute and relative intracellular concentrations of amino acids. Deletion of Aro8 leads to de novo production of phenylethanol during growth on a glucose synthetic medium with ammonium as the sole nitrogen source. The mutation also stimulates phenylethanol production when combined with other mutations that deregulate aromatic amino acid biosynthesis Saccharomyces cerevisiae
