High titer production of gastrodin enabled by systematic refactoring of yeast genome and an antisense-transcriptional regulation toolkit
Gastrodin, a phenolic glycoside, is a prominent component of Gastrodia elata, which is renowned for its sedative, hypnotic, anticonvulsant, and neuroprotective activities. Engineering heterologous production of plant natural products in microbial host represents a safe, cost-effective, and scalable alternative to plant extraction. Here, we present the construction of an engineered Yarrowia lipolytica yeast that achieves a high-titer production of gastrodin. We systematically refactored the yeast genome by enhancing the flux of the shikimate pathway and optimizing the glucosyl transfer system. We introduced more than five dozen of genetic modifications onto the yeast genome, including enzyme screening, alleviation of rate-limiting steps, promoter selection, genomic integration site optimization, downregulation of competing pathways, and elimination of gastrodin degradation. Meanwhile, we developed a Copper-induced Antisense-Transcriptional Regulation (CATR) tool. The developed CATR toolkit achieved dynamic repression and activation of violacein synthesis through the addition of copper in Y. lipolytica. This strategy was further used to dynamically regulate the pyruvate kinase node to effectively redirect glycolytic flux towards the shikimate pathway while maintaining cell growth at proper rate. Taken together, these efforts resulted in 9477.1 mg/L of gastrodin in shaking flaks and 13.4 g/L of gastrodin with a yield of 0.149 g/g glucose in a 5-L bioreactor, highlighting the potential for large-scale and sustainable production of gastrodin from microbial fermentation.
期刊介绍:
Metabolic Engineering (MBE) is a journal that focuses on publishing original research papers on the directed modulation of metabolic pathways for metabolite overproduction or the enhancement of cellular properties. It welcomes papers that describe the engineering of native pathways and the synthesis of heterologous pathways to convert microorganisms into microbial cell factories. The journal covers experimental, computational, and modeling approaches for understanding metabolic pathways and manipulating them through genetic, media, or environmental means. Effective exploration of metabolic pathways necessitates the use of molecular biology and biochemistry methods, as well as engineering techniques for modeling and data analysis. MBE serves as a platform for interdisciplinary research in fields such as biochemistry, molecular biology, applied microbiology, cellular physiology, cellular nutrition in health and disease, and biochemical engineering. The journal publishes various types of papers, including original research papers and review papers. It is indexed and abstracted in databases such as Scopus, Embase, EMBiology, Current Contents - Life Sciences and Clinical Medicine, Science Citation Index, PubMed/Medline, CAS and Biotechnology Citation Index.
