Raspberry ketone (RK) is the primary aromatic compound in raspberry fruit, which is widely utilized in perfume, cosmetics, and food additive industries. Currently, RK is predominantly produced chemically. RK biosynthesis through enzyme or whole cell has garnered significant attention due to the mild reaction conditions and the process being regarded as ‘natural’. This study proposed a ‘dual-microorganism, two-phase’ stepwise cascade strategy to produce RK from an economical precursor, 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (4-HBD). An acetone-tolerant deoxyribose-phosphate aldolase DERAEc(S238D) mutant was obtained through a site-specific rigidification strategy for converting 4-HBD to 4-hydroxybenzylaceton (4-HBA). Then, an engineeredE. colico-expressing isocitrate dehydrogenase and raspberry ketone synthaseRiRZS1 with a citrate-sodium citrate buffer to recycle nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) was constructed for the conversion of 4-HBA to RK. The final concentration of RK was 50.00 ± 1.92 mmol·L−1with a yield of 86.96%. This strategy provides a scalable coenzyme self-recycling and two-phase catalysis platform for high-value phenolic compounds.

Biocatalytic cascades with spatial proximity can orchestrate multistep pathways to form metabolic highways, which enhance the overall catalytic efficiency. However, the effect of spatial organization on catalytic activity is poorly understood, and multienzyme architectural engineering with predictable performance remains unrealized. Here, we developed a standardized framework, called iMARS, to rapidly design the optimal multienzyme architecture by integrating high-throughput activity tests and structural analysis. The approach showed potential for industrial-scale applications, with artificial fusion enzymes designed by iMARS significantly improving the production of resveratrol by 45.1-fold and raspberry ketone by 11.3-fold in vivo , as well as enhancing ergothioneine synthesis in fed-batch fermentation. In addition, iMARS greatly enhanced the in vitro catalytic efficiency of the multienzyme complexes for PET plastic depolymerization and vanillin biosynthesis. As a generalizable and flexible strategy at molecular level, iMARS could greatly facilitate green chemistry, synthetic biology, and biomanufacturing.

In China, Lu'an Guapian (LAGP) tea consists of tea leaves without tea buds or stems. In this study, we evaluated the aromatic characteristics of LAGP by sensory analysis, aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA), and odor activity values. The sensory analysis revealed that LAGP had cooked soybean-like, cooked chestnut-like, roasted, cooked corn-like, fishy, fruity, floral, and grass aromas. Aroma-active compounds from LAGP were identified by solvent extraction-solid phase extraction (SE-SPE) and headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME), and subjected to AEDA. A total of 91 aroma-active compounds were identified by SE-SPE-AEDA with flavor dilution (FD) factors ranging from 1 to 4096. A total of 66 aroma-active compounds were identified by HS-SPME-AEDA with FD of 1 to 128. Nine compounds with FD ≥64 and OAVs ≥1 were major aroma-active compounds to the aroma of LAGP tea: raspberry ketone (raspberry), ( E )- β -ionone (floral, raspberry), dimethyl sulfide (cooked corn-like), indole (animal), phenylacetaldehyde (floral, honey-like), 2-ethyl-3,5-dimethylpyrazine (roasted), ( Z )-4-heptenal (cooked soybean-like, fishy), ( Z )-jasmone (jasmine), and geraniol (rose).
