Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of microbial metabolic engineering, and in particular to a method for synthesizing cinnamic cinnamate with microorganisms. Background Art

[0002] Cinnamyl cinnamate is a key flavoring and bioactive compound found in a variety of plants. It is used in a wide range of products, including perfumes, shampoos, soaps, household cleaners, and detergents. However, the production of cinnamyl cinnamate via plant extraction and chemical synthesis is inefficient and environmentally unfriendly. Therefore, an attractive alternative is to use microbial cell factories to produce cinnamyl cinnamate from renewable carbon sources.

Plants have long growth cycles and low levels of cinnamate in plants, making plant extraction expensive.
