Description
gene is from Pseudomonas fluorescens
encodes feruoyl CoA synthase (ligates acetyl-CoA onto ferulic acid)
produces feruloyl CoA from ferrulic acid
catalyses the penultimate of the vanillin biosynthesis pathway
Notes
Gene was synthesised by geneart, as P. fluorescens has a high GC genome.
Coding region was optimised for gene expression in E. coli
