In this paper, we have identified a new sesquiterpene synthase gene (ZSS2) from Zingiber zerumbet Smith. Functional expression of ZSS2 in Escherichia coli and in vitro enzyme assay showed that the encoded enzyme catalyzed the formation of beta-eudesmol and five additional by-products. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis revealed that ZSS2 transcript accumulation in rhizomes has strong seasonal variations. To further confirm the enzyme activity of ZSS2 and to assess the potential for metabolic engineering of beta-eudesmol production, we introduced a gene cluster encoding six enzymes of the mevalonate pathway into E. coli and coexpressed it with ZSS2. When supplemented with mevalonate, the engineered E. coli produced a similar sesquiterpene profile to that produced in the in vitro enzyme assay, and the yield of beta-eudesmol reached 100 mg/L. << Less
