RESUMEN
Oleanolic acid and its derivatives are widely used in the pharmaceutical, agricultural, cosmetic and food industries. Previous studies have shown that oleanolic acid production levels in engineered cell factories are low, which is why oleanolic acid is still widely extracted from traditional medicinal plants. To construct a highly efficient oleanolic acid production strain, rate-limiting steps were regulated by inducible promoters and the expression of key genes in the oleanolic acid synthetic pathway was enhanced. Subsequently, precursor pool expansion, pathway refactoring and diploid construction were considered to harmonize cell growth and oleanolic acid production. The multi-strategy combination promoted oleanolic acid production of up to 4.07 g/L in a 100 L bioreactor, which was the highest level reported.
