Pheromones production
The aim was to produce two types of pheromones: DMTS/DMDS and benzylalcohol. We did some research on the two molecules to get the biosynthesis pathways to produce them in E. coli. Firslty, we needed to add the three enzymes implicated in the biosynthesis of benzylacohol: MdlB, MdlC and Hmas. We successfully cloned the Hmas gene and produced the equivalent protein. This enabled the production of the first metabolic intermediate (S-Mandelate) of the pathway. Secondly, we were able to clone the methionine-gamma-lyase gene and produce the equivalent protein. This enabledthe achievement of a first goal: the production of the DMTS/DMDS pheromone.
