| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In production of useful compounds via fermentation using microorganisms, it is important to maintain high target productivity. In order to achieve this, the metabolism of the cells should be maintained an ideal state during the fermentation. Visualization of intracellular metabolic state using a fluorescent protein provides useful clues for controlling the metabolism. In this work, we developed sensors for visualizing the metabolic flux of glycolysis or the TCA cycle. In the mevalonate production of Escherichia coli, we evaluated that the effect of the flux ratio control between glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway on the mevalonate production. It was shown that the mevalonate yield at the optimal flux ratio was increased by 25% compared to without control of the flux ratio.
