An Expanded Heterologous <i>GAL</i> Promoter Collection for Diauxie-Inducible Expression in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>
The <i>GAL</i> promoters
are applied in metabolic engineering
and synthetic biology to control gene expression in the budding yeast <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>. In <i>gal80Δ</i> background strains, they show diauxie-inducible expression, a feature
beneficial in metabolic pathway optimization. However, only a limited
number of <i>GAL</i> promoters have been characterized and
are available for engineering purposes. Multiple uses of the same
promoters can result in genetic instability in engineered strains
due to homologous recombination. Here, 11 <i>GAL1</i>/2
promoters from other <i>Saccharomyces</i> species were isolated
and characterized in <i>S. cerevisiae</i>. They exhibited
diauxie-inducible expression patterns with low strength in exponential
growth phase and induction in the ethanol growth phase. These promoters
represent an expansion to the collection of <i>GAL</i> promoters
available for genetic engineering in <i>S. cerevisiae</i>, including an increased diversity of expression levels. This provides
the capacity for increased numbers of genetic manipulations with a
lower risk of genetic instability

Integration of Yeast Episomal/Integrative Plasmid Causes Genotypic and Phenotypic Diversity and Improved Sesquiterpene Production in Metabolically Engineered <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>
The variability in phenotypic outcomes
among biological
replicates
in engineered microbial factories presents a captivating mystery.
Establishing the association between phenotypic variability and genetic
drivers is important to solve this intricate puzzle. We applied a
previously developed auxin-inducible depletion of hexokinase 2 as
a metabolic engineering strategy for improved nerolidol production
in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and biological
replicates exhibit a dichotomy in nerolidol production of either 3.5
or 2.5 g L–1 nerolidol. Harnessing Oxford Nanopore’s
long-read genomic sequencing, we reveal a potential genetic causethe
chromosome integration of a 2μ sequence-based yeast episomal
plasmid, encoding the expression cassettes for nerolidol synthetic
enzymes. This finding was reinforced through chromosome integration
revalidation, engineering nerolidol and valencene production strains,
and generating a diverse pool of yeast clones, each uniquely fingerprinted
by gene copy numbers, plasmid integrations, other genomic rearrangements,
protein expression levels, growth rate, and target product productivities.
Τhe best clone in two strains produced 3.5 g L–1 nerolidol and ∼0.96 g L–1 valencene. Comparable
genotypic and phenotypic variations were also generated through the
integration of a yeast integrative plasmid lacking 2μ sequences.
Our work shows that multiple factors, including plasmid integration
status, subchromosomal location, gene copy number, sesquiterpene synthase
expression level, and genome rearrangement, together play a complicated
determinant role on the productivities of sesquiterpene product. Integration
of yeast episomal/integrative plasmids may be used as a versatile
method for increasing the diversity and optimizing the efficiency
of yeast cell factories, thereby uncovering metabolic control mechanisms
