Engineering prokaryotic transcriptional activator XylR as a xylose-inducible biosensor for transcription activation in yeast.
ACS synthetic biology(2020)
摘要
Biosensors regulated by specific substrates are needed to develop genetic tools to meet the needs of engineering microbial cell factories. Here, a xylose-inducible biosensor (Xylbiosensor), comprising the activation factor XylR, fusion activation domain (AD) VPRH, and a hybrid promoter with operator , was established in . Addition of xylose to an engineered strain harboring the Xylbiosensor could trigger significant transcriptional activation of target genes, such as and the xylose utilization gene. Furthermore, a novel promoter Pleu-Pxo-Ptef was developed to construct a bi-directional expression system. The Xylbiosensor showed good portability in , suggesting its potential value in other eukaryotic cells. This study is the first to construct a "turn-on" Xylbiosensor induced by xylose addition based on a prokaryotic activator XylR and eukaryotic universal AD. The Xylbiosensor exhibits potential in pathway engineering for xylose utilization and xylose-derived product biosynthesis in yeast.
