Abstract

In this study, YlACL2 was inactivated by two methods: traditional approach based on homologous recombination and uracil marker and markerless system using CRISPR/Cas9. The efficiency of YlACL2 inactivation using traditional approach was 4% (one ΔYlacl2 strain out of 24 tested transformants) whereas knockout efficiency using CRISPR/Cas9 system was 75% (18 ΔYlacl2 strains out of 24 tested transformants). YlACL2 null mutant strains were not able to utilize citrate as a single carbon source. Growth kinetics was investigated in the media with glucose and acetate as a single carbon source. The fact that ΔYlacl2 is able to grow in the minimal medium with glucose as a single carbon source provides evidence that there is an alternative source of acetyl-CoA on carbohydrate substrates in Y. lipolytica.
