Abstract

As the workhorse of industrial amino acid production, Corynebacterium glutamicum is the focus of this review, which provides a comprehensive overview of available techniques employed to engineer strains with desired traits. The review highlights both traditional and cutting-edge approaches with a brief introduction to the bacterium's physiology, serving as a foundation for understanding its metabolic capabilities and potential applications. Genome modulation techniques by contrasting traditional methods with CRISPR-based approaches, as well as transcription modulation strategies that enhance gene expression and metabolic flux, and high-throughput techniques that streamline strain development processes are summarized. Furthermore, the roles of artificial intelligence and machine learning in genetic engineering are explored, emphasizing their growing impact on strain development.
