Application


  • Stepwise engineering of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to produce (+)-valencene and its related sesquiterpenes: Researchers developed a method to enhance the production of (+)-valencene and other sesquiterpenes in yeast by systematic genetic modifications, suggesting applications in bio-manufacturing of these compounds (Ouyang X et al., 2019).

  • Production of glutamate and stereospecific flavors, (S)-linalool and (+)-valencene, by Synechocystis sp. PCC6803: This article presents a novel approach using the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. for the production of both glutamate and specific terpene flavors, demonstrating the organism′s potential in biotechnological applications (Matsudaira A et al., 2020).

  • Production, Function, and Applications of the Sesquiterpenes Valencene and Nootkatone: a Comprehensive Review: This comprehensive review discusses the biochemical pathways, production methods, and commercial applications of valencene and nootkatone, highlighting their significance in the pharmaceutical and flavor industries (Zhang LL et al., 2023).
