发明名称 Enzymes that synthesize zingiberene
摘要 The invention relates to nucleic acids encoding a zingiberene synthase that enables host cells and plants to make zingiberene that is useful in fragrances and for repelling or killing insects. The invention also relates to isolated zingiberene synthases and to methods for making zingiberenes.

主权项 1. A method comprising: a) culturing a host cell to express a zingiberene synthase, wherein the host cell comprises an isolated nucleic acid encoding the zingiberene synthase operably linked to a heterologous promoter, and wherein the zingiberene synthase has at least 98% sequence identity to amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO: 2, 4, 8, 11, 12, 14, or 18; and b) providing the host cell with a substrate for the zingiberene synthase.
