In order to overcome the limitation of β-caryophyllene production by the extraction from plants or chemical synthesis, we aimed the microbial production of β-caryophyllene in non-conventional yeast Yarrowia lipolytica in this study. ResultsTwo genes, tHMG1 from S. cerevisiae to boost the mevalonate pool and QHS1 from Artemisia annua , were expressed under different promoters and copy numbers in Y. lipolytica . The co-expression of 8UAS pEYK1- QHS1 and pTEF- tHMG1 in the obese strain yielded 165.4 mg/L and 201.5 mg/L of β-caryophyllene in single and double copies, respectively. Employing the same combination of promoters and genes in wild-type-based strain with two copies resulted in a 1.36-fold increase in β-caryophyllene. The introduction of an additional three copies of 8UAS pEYK1- tHMG1 further augmented the β-caryophyllene, reaching 318.5 mg/L in flask fermentation. To maximize the production titer, we optimized the carbon source ratio between glucose and erythritol as well as fermentation condition that led to 798.1 mg/L of β-caryophyllene. ConclusionsA biosynthetic pathway of β-caryophyllene was firstly investigated in Y. lipolytica in this study. Through the modulation of key enzyme expression, we successfully demonstrated an improvement in β-caryophyllene production. This strategy suggests its potential extension to studies involving the microbial production of various industrially relevant terpenes.
