<p style="text-align: center; font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 10px;">fig 2 Galactose-induced D-lactic acid secretion system</p>
</div>
</div>
<p>We introduced a lactate dehydrogenase gene expressed by the galactose promoter into Saccharomyces cerevisiae and measured the content of D-lactic acid in the supernatant after induction. This validated that by introducing lactate dehydrogenase, we can alter the anaerobic metabolic pathway of S. cerevisiae to synthesize D-lactic acid, and the produced D-lactic acid can be secreted into the surrounding environment of the yeast.</p>

<p>Shortcoming: Experimental findings have shown that the nutritional composition of the yeast culture environment has a significant impact on the secretion of lactic acid; In the anaerobic environment, yeast can still produce alcohol, which may have an impact on the health of patients.</p>
<p>Solution:By further modifying the yeast's anaerobic metabolic pathways through genomic engineering, the impact of the nutritional composition of the culture environment on lactic acid secretion can be reduced; knockout of the alcohol dehydrogenase gene in the yeast genome.</p>

<p style="text-align: center; font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 10px;">fig 3 Muscone-induced lactate measurement results of the treatment system. (gal: induced by galactose; glc: induced by glucose; mus: induced by muscone)</p>
</div>
<p>We have simultaneously introduced the muscone molecular switch and the downstream lactate dehydrogenase into Saccharomyces cerevisiae, constructing a complete therapeutic system within the organism. After induction with muscone, we tested the content of D-lactic acid in the culture supernatant. The experimental results demonstrate that our complete therapeutic system can achieve specific secretion of lactic acid.
