  • Title: [Engineering Saccharomyces cerevisiae for sclareol production].
    Author: Yang W, Zhou Y, Liu W, Shen H, Zhao ZK.
    Journal: Sheng Wu Gong Cheng Xue Bao; 2013 Aug; 29(8):1185-92. PubMed ID: 24364354.
    Abstract:
    Sclareol is a member of labdane type diterpenes mostly used as fragrance ingredient. To enable microbial production of sclareol, synthetic pathways were constructed by incorporating labdenediol diphosphate synthase (LPPS) and terpene synthase (TPS) of the plant Salvia sclarea into Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It was found that sclareol production could be benefited by overexpression of key enzyme for precursor biosynthesis, construction of fusion protein for substrate channeling, and removal of signal peptides from LPPS and TPS. Under optimal shake flask culture conditions, strain S6 produced 8.96 mg/L sclareol. These results provided useful information for development of heterologous hosts for production of terpenoids.
