        <p>With the expanding of human settlements and the development of civil engineering, the demand of novel cementation material is increasing rapidly. To echo such demand, we developed Euk.cement: a live eukaryotic cell based auto-cementation kit. By surface displayed silica binding peptides and secreted flocculating proteins, Euk.cement will target onto any silica containing particles, such as sands and rocks, and stick them together. This system will be automatically initiated only in dark with a light operated switch. While carbon dioxide released from the metabolism of cells will finally complete the calcium carbonate sedimentation. This economical and ecological friendly innovation can be utilized for a wide range of industrial or environmental applications, such as construction and restoration of building foundations, bridge piers, or even artificial reefs for aquaculture. Since we have exploited a new kind of marine yeast as chassis, the application field of eukaryotic synthetic biology has then been considerably broadened.

Host strain

We adopt a marine yeast Yarrowia lipolytca JMY1212 as our chassis for the specific application this year--building artificial reef. Our host is generally regarded as safe microorganism and has an abroad application prospect in industries of foods and medicine. Researches shows that Y.lipolytica is widely found in marine environment which exists stably in the ocean and healthy marine fishes’ intestine and it is able to make use of Glucose,ethanol,acetate or other hydrophobic substrate(alkanes,fatty acid and lipid ) as carbon source with fast growing capacity and adaptability for high-density fermentation. Moreover in the expression system of Y.lipolytica, transformed plasmids can integrate into multiple site and they are all genetically stable in the genome. And the signal peptide XPR2 pre,LIP2 prepro and so on are all demonstrated to own high efficiency of secreting protein.So it is obvious Y.lipolytica is a powerful host to express and secrete complex recombinant protein. Based on the above reasons,Yarrowia lipolytica are regarded as ideal strain for our marine application of micro-solidation
