Abstract

A bioconversion method of making vanillin including expressing VaoA gene in a mixture, expressing MtSAD1 gene in the mixture, feeding eugenol to the mixture, and converting ferulic acid to vanillin by incubating with a microbial Amycolatopsis sp. strain (Zhp06) and/or a recombinant E. coli strain.
