Pathway Edits

SG4 overexpression (sorghum flavan-4-ol synthase) for phlobaphene precursor production
LAR co-expression (leucoanthocyanidin reductase) for PA branch balance modulation
ANR upregulation (anthocyanidin reductase) to modulate phlobaphene:PA ratio
F3H amplification (flavanone 3-hydroxylase) for dihydroflavonol substrate supply
CHS enhancement (chalcone synthase) for naringenin-based substrate pool expansion
T-DNA right-border optimized integration cassette
Enhanced flux via 5'UTR synthetic leader sequence optimization
