Efficient sex hormone biosensors in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells to evaluate human aromatase activity and inhibition by Jie Wu, Matthias Bureik, Mario Andrea Marchisio

“…Abstract Yeast sex-hormone whole-cell biosensors are analytical tools characterized by long-time storage and low production cost. We engineered compact β-estradiol biosensors in S. cerevisiae cells by leveraging short (20-nt long) operators bound by the fusion protein LexA-ER-VP64—where ER is the human estrogen receptor and VP64 a strong viral activation domain. …”
