Increased carvone production in Escherichia coli by balancing limonene conversion enzyme expression via targeted quantification concatamer proteome analysis

Abstract (−)-Carvone is a monoterpenoid with a spearmint flavor. A sustainable biotechnological production process for (−)-carvone is desirable. Although all enzymes in (−)-carvone biosynthesis have been functionally expressed in Escherichia coli independently, the yield was low in previous studies....
