Method for Multiplexed Integration of Synergistic Alleles and Metabolic Pathways in Yeasts via CRISPR-Cas9.
2019
: CRISPR-Cas has proven to be a powerful tool for precision genetic engineering in a variety of difficult genetic systems. In the highly tractable yeast S. cerevisiae, CRISPR-Cas can be used to conduct multiple engineering steps in parallel, allowing for engineering of complex metabolic pathways at multiple genomic loci in as little as 1 week. In addition, CRISPR-Cas can be used to consolidate multiple causal alleles into a single strain, bypassing the laborious traditional methods using marked constructs, or mating. These tools compress the engineering timeline sixfold or more, greatly increasing the productivity of the strain engineer.
