Genetically encoded biosensors have emerged as powerful tools for timely and precise in vivo evaluation of cellular metabolism. In particular, biosensors that can couple intercellular cues with downstream signaling responses are currently attracting major attention within health science and biotechnology. Still, there is a need for bioprospecting and engineering of more biosensors to enable real-time monitoring of specific cellular states and controlling downstream actuation. In this study, we…

NADH-dependent biosensor in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: principle and validation at the single cell level
TLDR
The designed system successfully allowed for monitoring perturbations in the cellular redox metabolism caused by environmental changes, or by heterologous gene expression, and displayed high resolution in distinguishing cytosolic NADH oxidation capacity and hence has potential to be used for high-throughput screening based on the fluorescence of single cells.
SoxR as a single-cell biosensor for NADPH-consuming enzymes in Escherichia coli.
TLDR
An ultra-high-throughput screening system for NADPH-dependent enzymes, such as stereospecific alcohol dehydrogenases, was established and was used successfully to screen a mutant LbAdh library for variants showing improved activity with the substrate 4-methyl-2-pentanone.
