Abstract Background Low ethanol tolerance of Kluyveromyces marxianus limits its application in high-temperature ethanol fermentation. As a complex phenotype, ethanol tolerance involves synergistic actions of many genes that are widely distributed throughout the genome, thereby being difficult to engineer. TATA-binding protein is the most common target of global transcription machinery engineering for improvement of complex phenotypes. Results A random mutagenesis library of K. marxianus TATA-binding protein Spt15 was constructed and subjected to screening under ethanol stress. Two mutant strains with improved ethanol tolerance were identified, one of which (denoted as M2) exhibited increased ethanol productivity. The mutant of Spt15 in strain M2 (denoted as Spt15-M2) has a single amino acid substitution at position 31 (Lys → Glu). RNA-Seq-based transcriptomic analysis revealed cellular transcription profile changes resulting from Spt15-M2. Spt15-M2 caused changes in transcriptional level of most of the genes in the central carbon metabolism network. Compared with control strain, 444 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in strain M2 (fold change > 2, P adj |
