Model-guided development of an evolutionarily stable yeast chassis
Pereira, Filipa; Lopes, Hélder; Maia, Paulo; Meyer, Britta; Nocon, Justyna; Jouhten, Paula; Konstantinidis, Dimitrios; Kafkia, Eleni; Rocha, MiguelAbstract First-principle metabolic modelling holds potential for designing microbial chassis that are resilient against phenotype reversal due to adaptive mutations. Yet, the theory of model-based chassis design has rarely been put to rigorous experimental test. Here, we report the development of Saccharomyces cerevisiae chassis strains for dicarboxylic acid production using genome-scale metabolic modelling. Th...
Yeast metabolic chassis designs for diverse biotechnological products
Jouhten, Paula; Boruta, T.; Andrejev, S.; Pereira, Filipa; Rocha, Isabel; Patil, K. R.The diversity of industrially important molecules for which microbial production routes have been experimentally demonstrated is rapidly increasing. The development of economically viable producer cells is, however, lagging behind, as it requires substantial engineering of the host metabolism. A chassis strain suitable for production of a range of molecules is therefore highly sought after but remains elusive. ...
