RESUMO
Budding yeast, as a eukaryotic model organism, has well-defined genetic information and a highly efficient recombination system, making it a good host to produce exogenous chemicals. Since most metabolic pathways require multiple genes to function in coordination, it is usually laborious and time-consuming to construct a working pathway. To facilitate the construction and optimization of multicomponent exogenous pathways in yeast, we recently developed a method called YeastFab Assembly, which includes three steps: (1) make standard and reusable genetic parts, (2) construct transcription units from characterized parts, and (3) assemble a complete pathway. Here we describe a detailed protocol of this method.
