Pathway Edits
- HCT hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA shikimate/quinate hydroxycinnamoyltransferase RNAi reduces CGA priming step
- C3H p-coumarate 3-hydroxylase RNAi limits caffeic acid availability for CGA conjugation
- CST chlorogenate synthase RNAi blocks final ester-bond formation step in CGA assembly
- QT quinate/shikimate pathway throttle attenuates total CGA throughput at the branch point

Use Case
Tier I Coffea arabica lines with substantially reduced CGA content for specialty coffee roasters, low-acid coffee formulations, and functional beverage applications where bitter TAS2R38 stimulation must be minimized without altering roast aroma development.
