Artificial Transcription Factors for Tuneable Gene Expression in Pichia pastoris

Abstract: The non-conventional yeast Pichia pastoris (syn. Komagataella phaffii) has become a powerful eukaryotic expression platform for biopharmaceutical and biotechnological applications on both laboratory and industrial scales. Despite the fundamental role that artificial transcription factors (ATFs) play in the orthogonal control of gene expression in synthetic biology, a limited number of ATFs are available for P. pastoris. To establish orthogonal regulators for use in P. pastoris, we characterized ATFs derived fr… Show more

“…Alternatively, one can vary the promoter strength driving the expression of these genes. Recent works have identified several constitutive promoters of various strengths that can drive gene expression in P. pastoris [ 36 , 37 , 38 ]. Finally, one can also use metabolic flux analysis to identify bottlenecks in the pathway and engineer the strain further to relieve these bottlenecks [ 39 , 40 ].…”

“…In order to establish plant-derived ATFs for bacterial gene expression, full-length plant TFs GRF9, ANAC102 and JUB1-derived ATFs (which function as weak, medium and strong ATFs in yeast 22, 23, 29 ), and the DBD of JUB1, JUB1 DBD (which functions as medium ATF in yeast) were used. The plant TFs were fused to the bacterial SoxS(R93A) activation domain 24, 28 optimized for expression in Salmonella ( Fig.…”

“…Here, we used the same approach as described by Dong et al (2018) to establish ATFs using dCas9 DBD and SoxS AD for tunable gene expression in Salmonella. We further evaluated a novel class of ATFs with heterologous DBDs based on plant-specific transcription factors (TFs) from Arabidopsis thaliana 22,29 , combined with the SoxS AD 23 in order to extend our library of ATFs that allow for inducible gene expression in Gram-negative bacteria. The expression of ATFs is typically controlled by exogenous inducers.…”

“…The titer of naringenin under xylose-controlled expression reached 715.3 ± 12.8 mg/L in shake-flask cultivation, which was much higher than the 239.1 ± 5.1 mg/L achieved under constitutive expression of UAS1B8TEF. Naseri et al (2017Naseri et al ( , 2021 developed an orthogonal and controllable system in s. cerevisiae and Pichia pastoris, which allows minimal interference with endogenous cellular processes and expression at the desired time. A library of 106 synthetic transcription regulatory units based on plant TFs and their cognate binding sites with up to 2,000-fold IPTG induction level was established.…”
