Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information increased limonene production by genetic modifications: Two genes in the pentose phosphate pathway, rpi and rpe, are overexpressed in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 to divert carbon flux toward limonene production. The Abies grandis geranyl diphosphate synthase GPPS 2, that specifically produce geranyl diphosphate, is expressed to ensure sufficient geranyl diphosphate for limonene production. Codon-optimized limonene synthases from Mentha spicata and Citrus limon are heterologously expressed in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 to produce S-limonene and R-limonene, respectively, method overview and computational modeling Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
