- W4280519575 abstract "Candida tropicalis, a nonmodel diploid microbe, has been applied in industry as a chassis cell. Metabolic engineering of C. tropicalis is challenging due to a lack of gene editing and regulation tools. Here, we report a tRNA:guide RNA (gRNA) platform for boosting gene editing and silencing efficiency in C. tropicalis. As the endogenous tRNA-processing system enables autocleavage for producing a large number of mature gRNAs, a tRNAGly sequence from the genome of C. tropicalis ATCC 20336 was selected for constructing the tRNA:gRNA platform. In the CRISPR-Cas9 system, the tRNA:gRNA platform proved to be efficient in single-gene and multi-gene editing. Furthermore, based on the tRNA:gRNA platform, a CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) system was developed to construct an efficient dCas9-mediated gene expression regulation system for C. tropicalis. The CRISPRi system was employed to regulate the expression of the exogenous gene GFP3 (green fluorescent protein) and the endogenous gene ADE2 (phosphoribosylaminoimidazole carboxylase). Different regions of GFP3 and ADE2 were targeted with the gRNAs processed by the tRNAGly, and the transcription levels of GFP3 and ADE2 were successfully downregulated to 23.9% ± 4.1% and 38.0% ± 7.4%, respectively. The effects of the target regions on gene regulation were also investigated. Additionally, the regulation system was applied to silence ERG9 (squalene synthase) to enhance β-carotene biosynthesis in a metabolically modified C. tropicalis strain. The results suggest that the endogenous tRNAGly and the CRISPRi system have great potential for metabolic engineering of C. tropicalis. IMPORTANCE In the nonmodel yeast Candida tropicalis, a lack of available RNA polymerase type III (Pol III) promoters hindered the development of guide RNA (gRNA) expression platforms for the establishment of CRISPR-Cas-mediated genome editing and silencing strategies. Here, a tRNA:gRNA platform was constructed. We show that this platform allows efficient and precise expression and processing of different gRNAs from a single polycistronic gene capable of mediating multi-gene editing in combination with CRISPR-Cas9. Furthermore, in combination with dCas9, the tRNA:gRNA platform was efficiently used for silencing of exogenous and endogenous genes, representing the first CRISPR interference tool (CRISPRi) in C. tropicalis. Importantly, the established CRISPRi-tRNA:gRNA tool was also used for metabolic engineering by regulating β-carotene biosynthesis in C. tropicalis. The results suggest that the tRNA:gRNA platform and the CRISPRi system will further advance the application of the CRISPR-Cas-based editing and CRISPRi systems for metabolic engineering in C. tropicalis." @default.
