Designed by: Chris French Group: iGEM08_Edinburgh (2008-07-09)
dxs coding sequence encoding 1-deoxyxylulose-5-phosphate synthase
This is the coding sequence of dxs from Escherichia coli JM109. It encodes 1-deoxyxylulose-5-phosphate synthase, thiamine-requiring, which catalyses teh first step in the biosynthesis of terpenoids. Overexpression of dxs has been reported to increase yields of carotenoids and other terpenoids [add reference here].
