Improved betulinic acid biosynthesis using synthetic yeast chromosome recombination and semi-automated rapid LC-MS screening

SCRaMbLE can lead to great genetic diversity for product biosynthesis but is limited by screening methods. Here the authors develop a rapid workflow using automation, ultra-fast LC/MS and barcoded nanopore sequencing to identify best performing strains.
