Reprogramming AraC-type transcriptional factor to respond to new ligands 1,3-propanediol and 1,4-butanediol via directed evolution.

Biosensors play a critical role in metabolic regulation and high-yield strain development in synthetic biology. Here, we developed a biosensor-specific screening platform based on growth-coupled selection and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS…
