Production of tropane alkaloids in yeast. Representative LC–MS chromatograms obtained from analysis of the culture medium of a S. cerevisiae strain expressing 4CL5 and EcCS are shown. The strain was fed with 3β-tropine and cinnamate or benzoate for the synthesis of cinnamoyl 3β-tropine (a) and tropacocaine (c), respectively. Note the double LC–MS peaks suggesting the presence of two isomers for each product. The LC–MS chromatogram of a solution of authentic cinnamoyl 3β-tropine is also shown (b)
