Specification
(Z, E)-9,12-tetradecadienyl acetate (ZETA,Z9,E12-14:OAc) is the major sex pheromone component of many stored food moth species. This pheromone is used worldwide for disruption, detection, monitoring, and large-scale trapping of fresh and processed food storage facilities. In this study, the bioproduction of the ZETA pheromone by the engineered yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was demonstrated, which also involved the production of (Z)-9-tetradecene acetate (Z9-14:OAc).
The biosynthesis of Z9,E12-14:OAc in E. cautella has been shown as figure. To create a biosynthetic pathway for ZETA production, this study utilized Dmel_D9 from D. melanogaster. The pathway was assembled using SexipgFARII38 and yeast ATF139. SexipgFARII effectively reduces Z9,E12-14:Acyl, while ATF1 is highly efficient at acetylating (Z, E)-9,12-tetradecadien-1-ol (Z9,E12-14:OH).
When the complete biosynthetic pathway was expressed in yeast and myristic acid methyl ester (14:Me) was added to the yeast medium, the final pheromone components, Z9,E12-14:OAc and (Z)-9-tetradecenyl acetate (Z9-14:OAc), were detected in the medium after four days of cultivation.

It is a naturally occurring compound found in various plant sources, particularly in flower petals, fruits, and essential oils. It is present in the pheromones of certain insects.
It is not very soluble in water but shows good solubility in common organic solvents such as ethanol, methanol, acetone, and diethyl ether.
(Z)-9-Tetradecenyl acetate has good stability under normal conditions. However, it can undergo hydrolysis in the presence of moisture, catalyzed by acids or bases, resulting in the release of acetic acid.
(Z)-9-Tetradecenyl acetate is used in the fragrance and flavor industry. It provides sweet, fruity, and floral notes to perfumes, colognes, and cosmetic products. It is also used as a flavoring agent in food products, such as baked goods and confectionery.
