Provided herein, inter alia, is a modular-functional technology for the expression of a functional heterologous polyketide synthases (PKS) system in a photosynthetic cyanobacteria.

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.

The present invention relates to a method for improving the heterologous synthesis of a polyketide by E. coli and use thereof. The yield of the polyketide heterologously synthesized by E. coli is significantly increased by attenuating the expression of seventy-two genes, such as sucC and talB, in a host strain, wherein the highest yield increase rate can reach 60% or more. Currently, erythromycin is the most clear model compound in the study on the biosynthesis of polyketids. The production strain of the present invention enables massive accumulation of 6-deoxyerythronolide (6-dEB), an erythromycin precursor, in the fermentation process, laying the foundation for the industrial production of the heterologous synthesis of erythromycin by E. coli.
