The research progress on trehalose biosynthesis pathways and the application of molecular biology technique in trehalose study in recent 30 years, especially the last 10 years are reviewed. Results show that there are 5 pathways of trehalose synthesis. Although enzymes and genes of trehalose synthesis have been isolated and genetic engineering strains have increased gradually, the improvement of trehalose yield is still inadequate because most recombinant strains are limited to study the physicochemical properties of single enzyme. With the development of modern biological technology, especially the rapid development of DNA recombinant technology, metagenomics and synthetic biology, high expression of heterologous trehalose in recombinant strains would become a hot research topic in the future.展开更多
