AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing chemical synthesis methods for perillyl lactone and perillyl glycol suffer from problems such as high waste treatment costs and unstable raw material supply, while biological production methods are few and require further exploration.

Method used

Hyphozyma or Cryptococcus or their derivatives were used to catalyze the synthesis of lysenoside diol and/or lysenoside lactone by contacting lysenoside diol with phosphorylase. The synthesis pathway of lysenoside diol was enhanced by recombinant engineered bacteria, and the mixed culture conditions were optimized.

Benefits of technology

This study achieved efficient and green synthesis of perillaldehyde and perillyl lactone, reducing production costs and increasing yield and production stability.
