Design Notes
For one thing, the usage of AroGfbr could alleviate the feedback inhibition of aromatic amino acids. For another thing, AroB optimization enable to enhance expression level. As a result, shikimate biosynthesis is improved owing to the enhanced metabolic flow.
Source
There are four genes for converting PEP and E4P into shikimate, including aroG (encoding 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate synthase), aroB (encoding 3-dehydroquinate synthase), aroD (encoding 3-dehydroquinate dehydratase), and aroE (encoding shikimate dehydrogenase), and these genes originate from Escherichia coli.
