Pathway Edits

  • LeIMPDH2 inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase isoform 2 overexpression under gpd promoter for maximal IMP-to-XMP conversion feeding GMP branch
  • LeGMPS GMP synthase upregulation via synthetic promoter for high-flux XMP amination to GMP in Lentinus edodes fruiting bodies
  • LeGDH glutamate dehydrogenase overexpression for enhanced alpha-ketoglutarate reductive amination to glutamate, freeing GTP pool for GMP cycling
  • LeGTP-cyclohydrolase activity redirection from tetrahydrofolate toward GTP-surplus pathway to increase GTP availability for GMP re-synthesis

Key Interventions

Use Case

Dried shiitake powder, mushroom extracts, and umami seasoning blends where high GMP content drives natural umami intensity equivalent to commercial yeast extracts. Suitable for clean-label soup bases and savory seasonings.
