Project description:Quorum sensing (QS) in bacteria has been a well studied cellular communication phenomenon for decades. In recent years, such systems have been repurposed for the use of biosensors in both cellular and cell-free contexts as well as for inducible protein expression in non-traditional chassis organisms. Such biosensors are particularly intriguing when considering the association between the pathogenesis of some bacteria and the QS signaling intermediates. Considering this relationship, and considering the recent demonstration of the species L. plantarum WCFS1 as both a synthetic biology chassis and an organism capable of detecting a pathogen-associated QS molecule, we wanted to develop this organism as a QS sentinel. Using an approach combining techniques from both systems and synthetic biology, we identified a number of native QS response genes and altered associated promoter activity to tune the output of L. plantarum cultures exposed to N-3-oxododecanoyl homoserine lactone. The resulting engineered QS sentinel reinforces the potential of modified Lactic Acid Bacteria for use in human health promoting applications, and also demonstrates a simple rational workflow to engineer sentinel organisms to respond to any environmental or chemical stimuli.

Project description:Escherichia coli strains are widely used in academic and applied research as well as in biotechnology for production of various compounds. Despite its status as a model organism, strain-specific differences and their underlying contributing factors are still not well characterized. These differences have a major impact on cell physiology and for the applied purposes of synthetic biology, metabolic engineering, and process design. In this study, strain-specific differences are quantified in seven widely-used applied biotechnology strains of E. coli (BL21, C, Crooks, DH5a, K-12 MG1655, K-12 W3110, and W) using genomics, phenomics, transcriptomics and genome-scale modelling to guide the choice of strain for a given product. Even given the genetic similarity of the strains, mMetabolic physiology and gene expression varied widely with downstream implications for productivity, product yield, and titre. Further, these differences can be linked to differential regulatory structure. Analysing high flux reactions and the expression levels of their encoding genes revealed a quantitative link between these sets and show that often, these sets are correlated with strain-specific caveats. Integrated modelling also revealed that certain strains are better suited to produce a given compound or express a desired construct considering native expression states of pathways that enable high-production phenotypes. The result of this study is a resource comparing strains in an important model species and a general strategy for choosing a host strain or chassis selection for applied biotechnology.

Project description:Chassis strain suitable for producing multiple compounds is a central concept in synthetic biology. Design of a chassis using computational, first-principle, models is particularly attractive due to the predictability and control it offers, including against phenotype reversal due to adaptive mutations. Yet, the theory of model-based chassis design has not been put to experimental test. Here, we report two Saccharomyces cerevisiae chassis strains for dicarboxylic acid production based on genome-scale metabolic modelling. The chassis strain, harboring gene knockouts in serine biosynthesis and in pentose-phosphate pathway, is geared for higher flux towards three target products - succinate, fumarate and malate - but does not appreciably secrete any. Introducing modular product-specific mutations resulted in improved secretion of the corresponding acid as predicted by the model. Adaptive laboratory evolution of the chassis-derived producer cells further improved production for succinate and fumarate attesting to the evolutionary robustness of the underlying growth-product coupling. In the case of malate, which exhibited decreased production during evolution, the multi-omics analysis revealed flux bypass at peroxisomal malate dehydrogenase not accounted in the model. Transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics analysis showed overall concordance with the flux re-routing predicted by the model. Together, our results provide experimental evidence for model-based design of microbial chassis and have implications for computer-aided design of microbial cell factories.

Project description:Microbial consortia consist of a multitude of prokaryotic and eukaryotic microorganisms. Their interaction is critical for the functioning of ecosystems. Until now, there is limited knowledge about the communication signals determining the interaction between bacteria and fungi and how they influence microbial consortia. Here, we discovered that bacterial low molecular weight arginine-derived polyketides trigger the production of distinct natural products in fungi. These compounds are produced by actinomycetes found on all continents except Antarctica and are characterized by an arginine-derived positively charged group linked to a linear or cyclic polyene moiety. Producer bacteria can be readily isolated from soil as well as fungi that decode the signal and respond with the biosynthesis of natural products. Both arginine-derived polyketides and the compounds produced by fungi in response shape microbial interactions.

Project description:Model-guided chassis strain design has the potential to accelerate cellfactory development. In this experiment genetic targets were identified in silico and implemented in vivo to design a yeast chassis strain for enhanced production of succinic, malic and fumaric acid. The phenotype of engineered chassis strains was further optimised through adaptive laboratory evolution. RNA-seq analysis of engineered yeast chassis strains, evolved strains and wild-type (CEN.PK background)was performed to determine the effect of engineered gene deletions and evolution on the transcriptome.

Project description:Synthetic microbial consortia represent a new frontier for synthetic biology given that they can solve more complex problems than monocultures. However, most attempts to co-cultivate these artificial communities fail because of the ‘‘winner-takes-all’’ in nutrients competition. In soil, multiple species can coexist with a spatial organization. Inspired by nature, here we show that an engineered spatial segregation method can assemble stable consortia with both flexibility and precision. We create microbial swarmbot consortia (MSBC) by encapsulating subpopulations with polymeric microcapsules. The crosslinked structure of microcapsules fences microbes, but allows the transport of small molecules and proteins. MSBC method enables the assembly of various synthetic communities and the precise control over the subpopulations. These capabilities can readily modulate the division of labor and communication. Our work integrates the synthetic biology and material science to offer new insights into consortia assembly and server as foundation to diverse applications from biomanufacturing to engineered photosynthesis.
