Pathway Edits

  • BSMT1 (benzoic acid/salicylic acid carboxymethyltransferase) overexpression for SAM-dependent salicylate methylation to methyl salicylate in Thymus vulgaris
  • PBS3 (avrPphB susceptibility 3 / GH3.12 adenylase) upregulation for isochorismate-to-salicylate flux optimization
  • ICS1 (isochorismate synthase 1) upregulation for isochorismate precursor accumulation feeding PBS3-mediated salicylate biosynthesis

Key Interventions

BSMT1/PBS3/ICS1 cascade amplification for high-yield methyl salicylate production via dual salicylate pathway engineering in Thymus vulgarisSAM synthetase upregulation ensures adequate SAM cofactor supply for BSMT1-catalyzed methylation under production conditionsMethyl salicylate TRPA1 agonism confirmed by IFI-P calcium-flux assay; characteristic wintergreen-cooling pungency validated in sensory cohortT-DNA binary vector 2A11 system validated for tissue-specific stable genomic integration

Use Case

Tier I methyl salicylate-enriched platform for wintergreen flavor ingredient production, TRPA1-selective cool-warm sensory contrast in confectionery, dental care product flavoring, and botanical extract standardization for beverages and functional food products requiring verifiable methyl salicylate concentrations independent of Betula or Gaultheria botanical supply variability.
