摘要
Fatty acid derivatives have ideal properties for use as drop‐in biofuels. An effective strategy in engineering microbial cells to maximize productivity and yield involves dynamic control of protein production in response to concentrations of key intermediates. In S accharomyces cerevisiae , the activities of the native transcription factors responsive to fatty acids are repressed in the presence of a glucose carbon source. In order to develop a modular fatty acid regulation system in S . cerevisiae , we constructed fatty acid/fatty acyl‐ C o A biosensors in S . cerevisiae using bacterial F ad R transcriptional repressors and yeast synthetic promoters containing DNA ‐binding operators. We demonstrated the functionality of F ad R repressors in S . cerevisiae , and tuned the sensing system by varying the promoter strength upstream to the F ad R ‐coding sequence by varying the number of operator sites in the synthetic promoter and by using F ad R from two bacterial sources ( E scherichia coli and V ibrio cholerae ) with different ligand sensitivities. We envision that our fatty acid/fatty acyl‐ C o A biosensors can be used for regulation of protein expression based on the availability of fatty acid intermediates, which will assist in balancing of cellular metabolism during fatty acid derivatives production in yeast.
