Usage and Biology
You can use a valencene synthase(ValS) as part of the nootkatone pathway. ValS converts FPP into Valencene. You can chose the ValS from Callitropis nootkatensis, because other valencene synthases perform relatively inefficient in microorganisms[1]. For example, they show a relatively poor product specificity, are less efficient in producing sesquiterpene than other synthases and have a significant amount of side products like germacrene A. In contrast to this, ValS from C. nootkatensis has a good product specificity and is more robust in terms of pH and temperature changes. It has also a better yield than citrus valencene synthases in yeast.
This part is designed for cytosolic expression, for peroxisomal import please choose part: BBa K2271124
Characterization
We verified the expression of ValS via western blot. Therefore, we have a 3xFLAG-6xHis-Tag as a part in our plasmids, we can use for the antibodies. The estimated atomic mass of ValS is 69 kDa.
