An object of the present invention is to identify an enzyme having activity of synthesizing dihydrotentoxin that is a tentoxin precursor and an enzyme having activity of synthesizing tentoxin using dihydrotentoxin as a substrate. The present invention concerns a tentoxin synthesis-related gene encoding a protein comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 16 and having activity of nonribosomal peptide synthesis of dihydrotentoxin and a tentoxin synthesis-related gene encoding a protein comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 18 and having activity of converting dihydrotentoxin to tentoxin.

Disclosed herein are the genetically modified Pseudomonas with improved tolerance to hydroxycinnamic acids.

Provided herein are methods for integrating a gene of interest into a chromosome of a host cell. In some embodiments, the methods include introducing into a host cell a first plasmid comprising a transposase coding sequence and a donor sequence, which includes a selectable marker coding sequence flanked by a first and a second lox site and is itself flanked by inverted repeats recognized by the transposase. Following transposase-mediated chromosomal integration of the donor sequence into the host cell, a second plasmid is introduced, which comprises the gene of interest and a second selectable marker coding sequence, both flanked by a first and a second lox site. The gene of interest is chromosomally integrated into the host cell by recombinase-mediated cassette exchange (RMCE) between the donor sequence and the second plasmid via Cre-lox recombination. Further provided herein are host cells, vectors, and methods of producing a product related thereto.
