Engineering a Transcription Activation Toolkit by Rewiring Prokaryotic Transcription Factors and Synthetic Yeast Promoters in Yarrowia lipolytica

Yarrowia lipolytica is a promising industrial host, yet its metabolic engineering potential remains limited by insufficient genetic tools. Here, we engineered a synthetic Transcription Activation Toolkit (TAT) based on LacI–VPRH, a chimeric protein fusing the prokaryotic DNA-binding domain LacI with the eukaryotic ac...

Discovery of a taxusin-mediated route to baccatin III enables its complete biosynthesis in engineered microbes

Taxol (paclitaxel) is a frontline anticancer drug widely applied for the treatment of breast, ovarian and lung cancers. Currently, its supply mainly relies on the semi-synthesis using baccatin III from Taxus plants. Heterologous biosynthesis of baccatin III in microorganisms offers a promising solution to alleviate glo...
