Description
dxs, from Escherichia coli JM109, encodes 1-deoxyxylulose-5-phosphate synthase, thiamine-requiring, which catalyses the first step in the biosynthesis of terpenoids. Overexpression of dxs has been reported to increase yields of carotenoids and other terpenoids [add reference here].lims1, from Citrus limon, encodes limonene synthase, which produces (+)-limonene from farnesyl diphosphate (an intermediate in the mevalonate pathway). (+)-Limonene is a component of lemon scent.
