Abstract Plant-sourced aromatic amino acid (AAA) derivatives are a vast group of compounds with broad applications. Here, we present the development of a yeast consortium for efficient production of (S)-norcoclaurine, the key precursor for benzylisoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis. A xylose transporter enables the concurrent mixed-sugar utilization in Scheffersomyces stipitis, which plays a crucial role in enhancing the flux entering the highly regulated shikimate pathway located upstream of AAA biosynthesis. Two quinate permeases isolated from Aspergillus niger facilitates shikimate translocation to the co-cultured Saccharomyces cerevisiae that converts shikimate to (S)-norcoclaurine, resulting in the maximal titer (11.5 mg/L), nearly 110-fold higher than the titer reported for an S. cerevisiae monoculture. Our findings magnify the potential of microbial consortium platforms for the economical de novo synthesis of complex compounds, where pathway modularization and compartmentalization in distinct specialty strains enable effective fine-tuning of long biosynthetic pathways and diminish intermediate buildup, thereby leading to increases in production. |
