Pathway Edits

  • GLS (geraniol linalool synthase) overexpression cassette for isopulegol precursor flux
  • MFS1 (menthofuran synthase 1) loss-of-function knockout to eliminate competing pathway
  • GPPS (geranyl pyrophosphate synthase) upregulation for GPP substrate supply
  • TPS-ment (menthol-selective terpene synthase) variant edit for isopulegol branch specificity
  • MR (menthol reductase) suppression to preserve isopulegol accumulation vs. menthol conversion
  • Pulegone reductase PR variant swap for isopulegol-selective reduction step

Key Interventions

Isopulegol potent TRPM8 agonist overproduction via GLS/GPPS/TPS-ment engineeringMFS1 and MR suppression to redirect flux toward isopulegol rather than menthofuran/mentholElevated isopulegol accumulation for superior TRPM8 binding potency versus L-menthol
