Development of microbial cell factory for L-tryptophan (L-trp) production has received widespread attention but still requires extensive efforts due to weak metabolic flux distribution and low yield. Here, the riboswitch-based high-throughput screening (HTS) platform was established to construct a powerful L-trp-producing chassis cell. To facilitate L-trp biosynthesis, gene expression was regulated by promoter and N-terminal coding sequences (NCS) engineering. Modules of degradation, transport and by-product synthesis related to L-trp production were also fine-tuned. Next, a novel transcription factor YihL was excavated to negatively regulate L-trp biosynthesis. Self-regulated promoter-mediated dynamic regulation of branch pathways was performed and cofactor supply was improved for further L-trp biosynthesis. Finally, without extra addition, the yield of strain Trp30 reached 42.5 g/L and 0.178 g/g glucose after 48 h of cultivation in 5-L bioreactor. Overall, strategies described here worked up a promising method combining HTS and multidimensional regulation for developing cell factories for products in interest.
