The present disclosure relates to methods for production of 4-hydroxytryptamine and derivatives thereof in a yeast cell. Herein are also disclosed methods for production of halogenated tryptophans and derivatives thereof in a cell. Herein are also disclosed methods for production of methylated tryptamine. The disclosure also provides nucleic acid constructs and cells useful for performing the present methods.

The present invention relates to methods and transformed host cells for the production of eriodictyol from naringenin via bioconversion.

Cells, including stem cells, comprising an autobioluminescent phenotype, wherein the cells emit a luminescent signal in the absence of an exogenous luminescent stimulator, are provided. The luminescent signal may be constitutive, inducible, repressible, or tissue-specific. The cells express a synthetically engineered bacterial luciferase (lux) cassette, i.e., the luxCDABEfrp gene cassette. The cells may comprise luxA, luxB, luxC, luxD, luxE, and flavin reductase. The cells may each express a combined expression level of luxC, luxD, luxE, and flavin reductase that is from ten to forty times greater than a combined expression level of luxA and luxB. Further, methods of making and using the cells comprising an autobioluminescent phenotype are disclosed herein.

The present invention relates to the production of eriodictyol via bioconversion.

A color former based on a fusion enzyme producing nitric oxide and use thereof are provided. The color former includes the fusion enzyme producing nitric oxide. The fusion enzyme is formed by sequentially combining nitric oxide synthase, flavoprotein and flavoprotein reductase pairwise via linker peptides. The fusion enzyme provided by the present disclosure has relatively high enzyme activity, can catalytically produce a large amount of nitric oxide, and can effectively bind to myoglobin in meat products to produce nitrosylmyoglobin, thereby effectively enhancing the red color of the meat products to obtain a color forming effect equivalent to that of sodium nitrite, and providing a highly practical solution for nitrite color forming replacement of meat products and improvement of meat product safety.

A consortium of engineered microorganisms for producing tryptophan-derived products and methods of using the same.
