Application

Application Comment Organism
nutrition evaluation of recombinant industrial scale production of (-)-carvone, the spearmint monoterpene ketone, in Escherichia coli for commercial use, overview Mentha spicata

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
the installation of the (-)-carvone biosynthesis from dimethyl allyl diphosphate of Menta spicata in Escherichia coli is not successful due to secretion of the intermediate (-)-limonene, after feeding of (-)limonen to recombinant bacteria, (-)-carvone is produced Mentha spicata
