Abstract

The present disclosure relates to the use of a maltose dependent degron to control stability of a protein of interest fused thereto at the post-translational level. The present disclosure also relates to the use of a maltose dependent degron in combination with a maltose-responsive promoter to control gene expression at the transcriptional level and to control protein stability at the post-translational level. The present disclosure also relates to the use of a stabilization construct that couples expression of a cell-growth-affecting protein with the production of non-catabolic compounds. The present disclosure further relates to the use of a synthetic maltose-responsive promoter. The present disclosure further provides compositions and methods for using a maltose dependent degron, a maltose-responsive promoter, and a stabilization construct, either alone or in various combinations, for the production of non-catabolic compounds in genetically modified host cells.
