The application relates to the field of
biotechnology, and particularly discloses a
Saccharomyces cerevisiae
engineering strain LSc274 with high yield of sirenol and a construction method and application thereof, aiming to solve the problems of low content of sirenol in a natural host, difficulty in
chemical synthesis, and low yield of
biosynthesis. ROX1 、 EXG1 、 DPP1 、 TRP1 , the GAL80
gene is knocked out in a
Saccharomyces cerevisiae host, and meanwhile, sirenol synthase coding genes, tHMG1, EGR20, TRP1, URA3, LEU2 and HIS3 genes are highly expressed. The yield of the constructed
engineering strain reaches 905.83+33.41 mg / L in a flask
fermentation, and the yield reaches 16.29+0.12 g / L in a 5 L fermenter, which is the highest yield reported at present, and the
engineering strain has the application prospect of large-scale production of sirenol.
