Synthetic biosensor accelerates evolution by rewiring carbon metabolism toward a specific metabolite.

Abstract excerpt

Proper carbon flux distribution between cell growth and production of a target compound is important for biochemical production because improper flux reallocation inhibits cell growth, thus adversely affecting production yield. Here, using a synthetic biosensor to couple production of a specific metabolite with cell growth, we spontaneously evolve cells under the selective condition toward the acquisition of...
