Figure 1From: De-novo synthesis of 2-phenylethanol by Enterobactersp. CGMCC 5087Phenylpyruvate pathway for 2-PE synthesis. 2-PE can be biosynthesized from phenylalanine through the Phenylethylamine pathway and the Ehrlich pathway. The shikimate pathway and the Ehrlich pathway form a phenylpyruvate pathway, which can de-novo synthesize 2-PE from glucose.Back to article page
