a Design of the cold-shock-triggered temperature control system based on Gal4M9 and wild-type Gal4. After deletion of GAL80, the PGAL4-driven Gal4M9 is expressed upon glucose depletion, and its activity is controlled by temperature. When the temperature is changed from 30 to 24 °C, the activated Gal4M9 switches on the expression of the wild-type Gal4 under control of the weakened PGAL1-3, and the accumulated Gal4 activates the expression of PGAL-driven genes including its own encoding gene. Even when the temperature is switched back to 30 °C after cold shock, the pathway can be kept activated in the presence of sufficient Gal4. b Biomass and tocotrienols yield of YS-M5 under regulation of different temperature control systems in shake-flask cultures. All values presented are the means of three biological replicates, and error bars represent standard deviations. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
