Abstract

Global transcription machinery engineering (gTME) is an approach for reprogramming gene transcription to elicit cellular phenotypes important for technological applications. Here we show the application of gTME to Saccharomyces cerevisiae for improved glucose/ethanol tolerance, a key trait for many biofuels programs. Mutagenesis of the transcription factor Spt15p and selection led to dominant mutations that conferred increased tolerance and more efficient glucose conversion to ethanol. The desired phenotype results from the combined effect of three separate mutations in the SPT15 gene [serine substituted for phenylalanine (Phe 177 Ser) and, similarly, Tyr 195 His, and Lys 218 Arg]. Thus, gTME can provide a route to complex phenotypes that are not readily accessible by traditional methods.

“1 转录因子全局扰动针对细胞非特定生化途径所关联的复杂性状,比如高产和胁迫抗性,其改造提升往往需要对细胞内在的代谢进行彻底的重编程,这就需要同时改变很多基因的表达水平,难以通过连续的多基因修饰来实现。全局转录机器工程 (gTME) 是通过改造和进化全局转录因子、转录机器等关键蛋白,构建高度多样、复杂的转录调控突变文库,在转录水平上产生新型的丰富多样性,实现对基因表达网络和细胞代谢重编程,并以定向进化方式加以迭代,从而使细胞获得所期望的表型([46])。 gTME 是一种从转录全局角度工程改造复杂性状的普适性方法。自 2006 年开发以来([47]),该方法已成功地应用于原核生物和真核生物系统,比如酿酒酵母、…”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
