Menaquinone-7 (MK-7) possesses wide health and medical value, and the market demand for MK-7 has increased. Metabolic engineering for MK-7 production in Escherichia coli still remains challenging due to the characteristics of the competing quinone synthesis, and cells mainly synthesized menaquinones under anaerobic conditions. To increase the production of MK-7 in engineered E. coli strains under aerobic conditions, we divided the whole MK-7 biosynthetic pathway into three modules (MVA pathway, DHNA pathway, and MK-7 pathway) and systema
