Development and application of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell-surface display for bioethanol production

摘要:

酿酒酵母Saccharomyces cerevisiae细胞表面展示表达系统是一种固定化表达异源蛋白质的真核展示系统，具有糖基化作用及蛋白翻译后折叠等优势，更利于基因工程操作。近年来，酵母细胞表面工程作为一种新兴策略来固定化淀粉水解酶、纤维素水解酶以及木聚糖降解酶，从而应用于燃料乙醇的生产。文中着重介绍了酵母细胞表面展示系统的基本原理、研究现状以及在生物乙醇生产中的应用前景及所面临的挑战。

Abstract:

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is useful as a host for genetic engineering, since it allows the folding and glycosylation of expressed heterologous eukaryotic proteins and can be subjected to many genetic manipulations. Recent advancements in the yeast cell surface engineering developed strategies to genetically immobilize amylolytic, cellulolytic and xylanolytic enzymes on yeast cell surface for the production of fuel ethanol from biomass. We reviewed the basic principle and progress of S. cerevisiae cell-surface engineering and gave an insight into the recent technological developments in the production of bioethanol using surface engineered yeast.
