Tyrosine ammonia lyase (S. cerevisiae), TAL
This part encodes Tyrosine ammonia lyase from Flavobacterium johnsoniaea K12
Biology
The organism this gene is initially expressed in is F. johnsoniaea.
In Flavobacterium johnsoniaea, TAL is responsible for converting L-tyrosine to p-coumaric acid. The enzyme forms a homo-tetramer when active as a cytosolic enzyme, mostly consisting of alpha helices. The enzyme FjTAL has been studied for the sustainable production of phenylpropanoids [1].
Usage
This enzyme is implemented in the synthesis pathway to produce rosmarinic acid in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae culture. TAL converts L-tyrosine to p-coumaric acid with the removal of the amine group. [3].
