Engineered Passive Glucose Uptake in Pseudomonas taiwanensis VLB120 Increases Resource Efficiency for Bioproduction by Tobias Schwanemann, Nicolas Krink, Pablo I. Nikel, Benedikt Wynands, Nick Wierckx

“…In this study, we heterologously expressed the energy‐independent glucose facilitator protein (Glf) from Zymomonas mobilis to replace the native energy‐demanding glucose transport systems, thereby increasing the metabolic energy efficiency. The implementation of passive glucose uptake in engineered production strains significantly increased product titres and yields of the two different aromatic products, cinnamic acid (+10%–15%) and resveratrol (+26%; 18.1 mg/g) in batch cultures.…”
