TL;DR
This study systematically optimizes the biosynthetic pathway for β-carotene through systems metabolic engineering, highlighting the potential of Y. lipolytica for the engineered synthesis of highly hydrophobic natural products and providing guidance for the efficient production of other lipid-soluble terpenoids.
Mannitol is widely utilised in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Current commercial production primarily depends on chemical synthesis, a process that is expensive, environmentally detrimental, and requires high-temperature/pressure as well as complex purification steps. While microbial production of mannitol has...

Acetate is a sustainable C2 feedstock derived from CO2 electroreduction, but its conversion to complex natural products is constrained by impaired cell growth and poor metabolic compatibility. Adaptive laboratory evolution generated an evolved Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain capable of producing 536.32 mg/L of p-coum...

Vanillyl alcohol (VNA) is a high-value compound used in the pharmaceutical industry and other fields. Its microbial de novo biosynthesis is severely limited by the low catalytic efficiency of O-methyltransferase. Here, we constructed a V314I mutant of caffeate O-methyltransferase via structure-guided protein engineerin...
