We developed the fine-tuned gene expression using controlled sRNA expression level. Applying this in metabolic engineering, putrescine production strains with five levels of sRNA against endogenous genes were constructed and used to identify knockdown targets for productivity enhancement. Isolated strains were combined and optimized through multiple target fine-tuned knockdown. The fed-batch cultivation of final engineered strain shows dramatically increased productivity and yield putrescine.
