Alcohol dehydrogenase 2 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae

We designed ADH2 as a part of the lure module to make E. coli produce 3-methyl-1-butanole to attract mosquitos. ADH2 as well as kivD is needed to convert 2-ketoisocaproate into 3-methyl-1-butanole.1

Usage and Biology

ADH2 is the glucose-repressible alcohol dehydrogenase 2. It naturally occurs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is NAD-dependent and normally converts ethanol into acetylaldehyde. But it can act on a variety of primary unbranched aliphatic alcohol such as 2-ketoisocaproate. We expressed ADH2 in E. coli to use it as part of our Lure Module. Together with kivD it converts 2-ketoisocaproate, which was prepared by LeuABCD, into 3-methyl-1-butanole.2

ADH2 is part of the 3MB module, BBa_K2588024.
