Abstract

The present invention provides engineered cells and methods for making high purity steviol glycosides, including RebM. In some aspects, the present invention provides host cells, such as bacterial cells (including but not limited to E. coli), that are engineered to overexpress and/or delete or inactivate one or more steviol glycoside transport proteins. The bacterial cells selectively export RebM, or other specific combination of steviol glycosides, out of the cell to increase productivity and reduce production costs associated with downstream purification. Non-target steviol glycosides are not transported to the extracellular medium in significant amounts.

Abstract

In various aspects and embodiments, the invention provides microbial cells and methods for producing advanced glycosylation products from lower glycosylated intermediates. The microbial cell expresses one or more UDP-dependent glycosyl transferase enzymes in the cytoplasm, for glycosylation of the intermediates. When incubating the microbial strain with a plant extract or fraction thereof comprising the intermediates, these glycosylated intermediates are available for further glycosylation by the cell, and the advanced glycosylation products can be recovered from the media and/or microbial cells.
