Pathway Edits

  • TPS3 (terpene synthase 3, piperitone-selective) codon-optimized overexpression
  • GPPS (geranyl pyrophosphate synthase) upregulation for monoterpene precursor
  • CYP71D15 (limonene hydroxylase) stereoselective variant for piperitone branch flux
  • PIPR (piperitone reductase) loss-of-function RNAi to prevent piperitone consumption

Key Interventions

Piperitone monoterpenone overproduction via TPS3/GPPS co-upregulation in Mentha spicataTRPM8 agonist accumulation through CYP71D15 stereoselective hydroxylation optimizationPIPR suppression to prevent piperitone reduction and preserve TRPM8-active compound pool
