Pathway Edits

  • WasS1 glucosinolate synthase analog integration from Wasabia japonica functional ortholog
  • TGG2 high-volatility myrosinase isoform with pH 5.5-optimized kinetic profile
  • PEN2 myrosinase pathway integration for stomatal-independent rapid hydrolysis
  • MYB34 aliphatic GSL transcription factor with ABA-independent constitutive promoter cassette
  • CYP79A1 + CYP79B2 dual aromatic-aliphatic branch upregulation for layered ITC profile
  • FMOGS-OX1 flux redirection from methylsulfinyl to alkenyl glucosinolate branch
  • AOP2 isothiocyanate-forming enzyme optimization for AITC chain-length specificity
  • UGT74C1 glucosyltransferase wasabi-isoform analog for 6-methylsulfinylhexyl ITC synthesis

Use Case

Tier I wasabi-substitute ingredient system for premium sushi applications, Japanese cuisine condiment formulation, and authentic-profile wasabi paste manufacturing where Wasabia japonica supply constraints or agronomic cost considerations require an engineered botanical equivalent. Suitable for RTD condiment manufacturers, fine-dining ingredient suppliers, and specialty food brands targeting the wasabi premium segment with verifiable pungency specifications.
