Pathway Edits

  • CYP79A1 (phenylalanine N-hydroxylase) upregulation for phenethyl glucosinolate oxime biosynthesis from L-phenylalanine
  • BGLU23 (beta-glucosidase myrosinase) enhancement for gluconasturtiin hydrolysis and PEITC liberation
  • CYP83B1 N-hydroxy-phenylacetaldoxime dehydratase upregulation for aromatic thiohydroximate intermediate flux
  • UGT74B1 glucosyltransferase efficiency optimization for gluconasturtiin assembly rate
  • AOP3-null allele introduction to prevent gluconasturtiin oxidative sidechain conversion
  • ESP-like protein knockdown for selective PEITC formation over nitrile analog
  • SUR1 C-S lyase integration for thiohydroximate-to-glucosinolate conversion in Nasturtium background
  • PAL upregulation for expanded phenylalanine precursor pool feeding CYP79A1 substrate supply
  • AtST5b sulfotransferase upregulation for gluconasturtiin desulfo-intermediate complete processing

Key Interventions

CYP79A1/BGLU23 cascade amplification for high-yield PEITC liberation from gluconasturtiin in Nasturtium officinaleAOP3-null allele combined with ESP knockdown ensures near-exclusive PEITC formation with minimal non-pungent sidechain product formationPAL-driven phenylalanine precursor expansion feeds CYP79A1 for sustained PEITC production under variable growth conditionsPEG-mediated transient expression protocol validated for rapid phenotypic pathway screening

Use Case

Tier V PEITC-enriched Nasturtium platform for high-potency peppery-mustard flavor formulation, TRPA1-targeted functional ingredient development, and standardized PEITC supply for nutraceutical and chemopreventive food product lines. Designed for manufacturers seeking consistent phenethyl ITC concentrations independent of environmental variability in glucosinolate-producing crop systems.
