Multilevel Systematic Optimization To Achieve Efficient Integrated Expression of Escherichia coli

Genomic integration of heterologous genes is the preferred approach in industrial fermentation-related strains due to the drawbacks associated with plasmid-mediated microbial fermentation, including additional growth burden, genetic instability, and antibiotic contamination. Synthetic biology and genome editing advancements have made gene integration convenient. Integrated expression is extensively used in the field of biomanufacturing and is anticipated to become the prevailing method for expressing recombinant proteins. Therefore, it is pivotal to strengthen the expression of exogenous genes at the genome level. Here, we systematically optimized the integrated expression system of
