Biosynthesis of L-phenylalanine from aromatic precursor benzaldehyde. a Scheme showing the one-pot L-phenylalanine production from benzaldehyde with co-substrate formate for cofactor NADH regeneration. Production enzymes indicated the enzymes LtaEP.p, A8HB.t, and RidA that converted benzaldehyde to phenylpyruvate. b Biotransformation of the L-phenylalanine production in strain M8. Strain M8: BW25113 transformed with plasmids pPLA-6 and pPLA-7 to overexpress genes ltaEP.p, A8HB.t, ridA, pdh, and fdh. Error bars are the standard deviation for three independent experiments
