Problems solved by technology

However, in the metabolic engineering of yeast, the constitutively high expression of genes or the premature accumulation of metabolites will cause a physiological burden on the cells and affect the final production level and production efficiency. Therefore, time-sharing regulation of gene expression is of great significance very important
[0004] The inducible promoter GAL1p is commonly used in yeast to achieve time-sharing regulation of gene expression, but the inducible expression intensity and sensitivity of the inducible promoter GAL1p are relatively low, and the expression of the target gene cannot be quickly initiated; at the same time, it is strictly repressed by glucose
Glucose is the most commonly used fermentation raw material in the actual fermentation industry. The presence of glucose in the fermentation system will strictly repress the gene expression under the regulation of the inducible promoter GAL1p, which brings difficulties to the control of the fermentation process, thus limiting the inducible expression system. practical application of

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and specifically relates to a specific DNA molecule that regulates the strength and / or expression pattern of a promoter. Background technique [0002] Metabolic Engineering and Synthetic Biology, which optimize or reconstruct cellular metabolic networks through genetic manipulation, are very important frontiers in the field of modern biotechnology. In the transformation of metabolic pathways, to maximize the synthesis of target metabolites without affecting the physiological functions of the host cell, it is often necessary to coordinate the expression levels of multiple genes. Therefore, synthetic biology methods are used to design and construct different strengths of metabolites. Expression of regulatory elements, timely and appropriate regulation of gene expression levels, can improve the predictability of metabolic pathway modification, thereby simplifying the modification process, improving the effic...
