| چکیده | ||
| The sustainable processing of starch-rich industrial crops, such as potatoes, maize, and wheat, is central to the production of value-added products, including bioethanol and high-fructose corn syrup, from these feedstocks. Efficient conversion of crop-derived starch into fermentable sugars relies on robust α-amylase enzymes and their optimal concentrations. Here, we present a proof-of-concept CRISPR/Cas9-based strategy aimed at engineering the regulatory region of the amyE gene in Bacillus subtilis, a GRAS-certified bacterium widely used for industrial enzyme production. Our modular synthetic construct features combined elements, including a high-strength promoter, multiple ribosomal binding sites, and optimized secretion signal, enabling optimization of α-amylase expression and secretion. The modular plasmid was successfully assembled and validated in Escherichia coli, which is used for its rapid cloning capabilities and compatibility with plasmid construction, before transformation into the final B. subtilis production host. This integrated engineering approach in a single construct is expected to yield higher extracellular α-amylase titers than native systems, supporting more efficient industrial starch bioprocessing of starch-rich agricultural feedstocks and advancing green technologies for the industrial crop sector. Future work will focus on quantifying α-amylase activity in engineered strains and validating the approach on agricultural substrates to assess industrial scalability. | ||
