Use of 3-Deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonic acid 7-phosphate Synthase (DAHP Synthase) to Enhance the Heterologous Biosynthesis of Diosmetin and Chrysoeriol in an Engineered Strain of Streptomyces albidoflavus.

ABSTRACT: Flavonoids are a large family of polyphenolic compounds with important agro-industrial, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical applications. Among the structural diversity found in the flavonoid family, methylated flavonoids show interesting characteristics such as greater stability and improved oral bioavailability. This work is focused on the reconstruction of the entire biosynthetic pathway of the methylated flavones diosmetin and chrysoeriol in Streptomyces albidoflavus. A total of eight different genes (TAL, 4CL, CHS, CHI, FNS1, F3'H/CPR, 3'-OMT, 4'-OMT) are necessary for the heterologous biosynthesis of these two flavonoids, and all of them have been integrated along the chromosome of the bacterial host. The biosynthesis of diosmetin and chrysoeriol has been achieved, reaching tite
