Abstract
Bio-based production of fuels, chemicals and materials is needed to replace current fossil fuel based production. However, bio-based production processes are very costly, so the process needs to be as efficient as possible. Developments in synthetic biology tools has made it possible to dynamically modulate cellular metabolism during a fermentation. This can be used towards two-stage fermentations, where the process is separated into a growth and a production phase, leading to more efficient feedstock utilization and thus potentially lower costs. This article reviews the current status and some recent results in application of synthetic biology tools towards two-stage fermentations, and compares this approach to pre-existing ones, such as nutrient limitation and addition of toxins/inhibitors.

The editors will consider papers for publication based on novelty, their immediate or future impact on biotechnological processes, and their contribution to the advancement of biochemical engineering science. Submission of papers dealing with routine aspects of bioprocessing, description of established equipment, and routine applications of established methodologies (e.g., control strategies, modeling, experimental methods) is discouraged. Theoretical papers will be judged based on the novelty of the approach and their potential impact, or on their novel capability to predict and elucidate experimental observations.
