ABSTRACT
Glucose metabolism suppresses the microbial synthesis of sesquiterpenes with a syndrome of "too much of a good thing can be bad". Here, patchoulol production in Escherichia coli was increased 2.02 times by engineering patchoulol synthase to obtain an initial strain. Knocking out the synthetic pathway for cyclic adenosine monophosphate relieved glucose repression and improved patchoulol titer and yield by 27.7 % and 43.1 %, respectively. A glycolysis regulation device mediated by pyruvate sensing was constructed which effectively alleviated overflow metabolism in a high-glucose environment with 10.2 % greater patchoulol titer in strain 070QA. Without fine-tuning the glucose-feeding rate, patchoulol titer further increased to 1675.1 mg/L in a 5-L bioreactor experiment, which was the highest level reported in E. coli. Using strain 070QA as a chassis, the τ-cadinol titer reached 15.2 g/L, representing the first report for microbial production of τ-cadinol. These findings will aid in the industrial production of sesquiterpene.
