[Research progress in energy metabolism design of cell factories].

Energy metabolism regulation plays a pivotal role in metabolic engineering. It mainly achieves the balance of material and energy metabolism or maximizes the utilization of materials and energy by regulating the supply intensity and mode of ATP and reducing electron carriers in cells. On the one hand, the production efficiency can be increased by changing the distribution of material metabolic flow. On the other hand, the thermodynamic parameters of enzyme-catalyzed reactions can be altered to affect the reaction balance, and thus the production costs are reduced. Therefore, energy metabolism regulation is expected to become a favorable tool for the modification of microbial cell factories, thereby increasing the production of target metabolites and reducing production costs. This article introduces the commonly used energy metabolism regulation methods and their effects on cell factories, aiming to provide a reference for the efficient construction of microbial cell factories.
