Pathway Edits

  • UGGT overexpression (galloyl-UDP-glucosyltransferase) for galloyl-glucose scaffold initiation
  • laccase-ELG upregulation for oxidative C-C galloyl coupling toward ellagic acid
  • PGT polygalloylglucoside transferase amplification for ellagitannin polymerization
  • cytochrome-b5 electron carrier co-expression for laccase-ELG redox support
  • UGGT/laccase-ELG bicistron optimization for coupled galloylation-oxidation
  • Biolistic tungsten-particle coating for leaf/seed explant delivery
  • Enhanced flux via 5'UTR synthetic leader sequence optimization
