Hierarchical Flux‐Protection Engineering Stabilizes Oxidation‐Prone Metabolic Nodes for High‐Level Curcumin Biosynthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Flux‐protection engineering stabilizes an oxidation‐prone L‐DOPA node in engineered E. coli by combining acid‐adapted chassis evolution, respiratory‐chain modulation, enzyme‐level flux matching, and pH–DO control. Carbon is redirected from oxidative browning to productive biosynthesis, enabling 1075.2 mg/L curcumin and demonstrating transferability to ...
