Summary: Testing its gene editing efficiency in BL21 (DE3)

Characterization from iGEM21-NNU-China

        Microbially produced 2‑Phenylethanol (2-PE) is mainly obtained by two routes, containing the de novo pathway from glucose and bioconversion from L-phenylalanine by the Ehrlich pathway. Compared to the multi-step pathway, the Ehrlich pathway provides more efficient synthesis of 2-PE In the Ehrlich pathway, the generation of L-phenylalanine by oxidative decarboxylation to phenylethylaldehyde is a key step in the high yield of 2-PE(Farhi et al. 2010) (Fig. 1). Petunia hybrida hybrid phenylacetaldehyde synthase (PAAS) was first registered in 2021, which had been shown to have functional activity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4741. We introduced this gene into the genome of Y. lipolytica polf and tested it in shake flask fermentation with 4 g/L of L-phe. The experimental result showed that overexpression of PhPAAS (No part name specified with partinfo tag.) does not affect the normal growth of Y. lipolytica. Simultaneously, there was a significant increase in the yield of 2-PE, reaching 957.35 mg/L (Fig. 1). These results provide references for future iGEM team to select suitable sources of PAAS.
