New Promoters for Metabolic Engineering of Ashbya gossypii.

ABSTRACT: Ashbya gossypii is a filamentous fungus that is currently exploited for the industrial production of riboflavin. In addition, metabolically engineered strains of A. gossypii have also been described as valuable biocatalysts for the production of different metabolites such as folic acid, nucleosides, and biolipids. Hence, bioproduction in A. gossypii relies on the availability of well-performing gene expression systems both for endogenous and heterologous genes. In this regard, the identification of novel promoters, which are critical elements for gene expression, decisively helps to expand the A. gossypii molecular toolbox. In this work, we present an adaptation of the Dual Luciferase Reporter (DLR) Assay for promoter analysis in A. gossypii using integra
