PHLOROGLUCINOL REDUCTASE AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING THE SAME

摘要

The invention provides nucleic acids, amino acids, cells, and related methods for the biosynthetic production of dihydrophloroglucinol. In various embodiments, the invention includes an isolated or recombinant phloroglucinol reductase, which can be used in conjunction with an enzyme system for the biosynthetic production of phloroglucinol. The synthesis can be from a renewable carbon source. The dihydrophloroglucinol can be used in subsequent reactions, or can be converted into phloroglucinol that can be used in subsequent reactions.
