Abstract: In various aspects, the present invention provides uridine diphosphate-dependent glycosyltransferase (UGT) enzymes capable of catalyzing the transfer of a monosaccharide moiety from a NDP-sugar to the 3? carbon of a sugar moiety of a substrate, such as a terpenoid glycan, thereby functioning as a “1-3 UGT.” In other aspects, the invention provides polynucleotides encoding the 1-3 UGT, and host cells comprising the same. In still other aspects, the invention provides methods for preparing glycosylated substrates, including steviol glycosides, using the enzyme and host cells of this disclosure.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and compositions for producing rotundone. In various aspects, the present disclosure provides enzymes, polynucleotides encoding said enzymes, and recombinant microbial host cells (or microbial host strains) for the production of rotundone. In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides microbial host cells for producing rotundone at high purity and/or yield, from either enzymatic transformation of ?-guaiene, or from sugar or other carbon source. The present disclosure further provides methods of making products containing rotundone, including flavor or fragrance products, among others.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods and bacterial strains for making terpene and terpenoid products, the bacterial strains having improved carbon pull through the MEP pathway and to a downstream recombinant synthesis pathway.

Abstract: In various aspects and embodiments, the invention relates to bacterial strains and methods for making terpene and terpenoid products. The invention provides bacterial strains with improved carbon flux through the MEP pathway, to thereby increase terpene and/or terpenoid product yield by fermentation with carbon sources such as glucose.

Abstract: In various aspects and embodiments, the invention provides microbial cells and methods for producing advanced glycosylation products from lower glycosylated intermediates. The microbial cell expresses one or more UDP-dependent glycosyl transferase enzymes in the cytoplasm, for glycosylation of the intermediates. When incubating the microbial strain with a plant extract or fraction thereof comprising the intermediates, these glycosylated intermediates are available for further glycosylation by the cell, and the advanced glycosylation products can be recovered from the media and/or microbial cells.
