Pathway Edits

  • BCAT (branched-chain amino acid aminotransferase) upregulation for methionine chain-elongation pathway priming
  • CYP79B2 (methylthioalkyl glucosinolate oxime synthase) overexpression for methylated glucosinolate oxime biosynthesis
  • MYR2 myrosinase isoform integration for methyl glucosinolate-specific hydrolysis kinetics
  • AOP1 (2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase) suppression to prevent MITC precursor sidechain oxidation
  • UGT74B1 glucosyltransferase optimization for methylglucosinolate assembly efficiency
  • AtST5a sulfotransferase upregulation for high-flux desulfo-methylglucosinolate conversion
  • GSH biosynthesis pathway enhancement for glucosinolate sulfur-donor cofactor supply

Use Case

Tier V MITC-enriched ingredient for mustard-family pungency applications, soil fumigation-inspired flavor analogues in culinary contexts, and TRPA1-targeted sensory activation in savory and fermented food formats. Designed for flavor manufacturers requiring consistent MITC yield from a stabilized White Mustard platform independent of seasonal precursor variability.
