    Abstract Yarrowia lipolytica has emerged as a biomanufacturing platform for a variety of industrial applications. It has been demonstrated to be a robust cell factory for the production of renewable chemicals and enzymes for fuel, feed, oleochemical, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical applications. Metabolic engineering of this non-conventional yeast started through conventional molecular genetic engineering tools; however, recent advances in gene/genome editing systems, such as CRISPR–Cas9, transposons, and TALENs, has greatly expanded the applications of synthetic biology, metabolic engineering and functional genomics of Y. lipolytica . In this review we summarize the work to develop these tools and their demonstrated uses in engineering Y. lipolytica , discuss important subtleties and challenges to using these tools, and give our perspective on important gaps in gene/genome editing tools in Y. lipolytica .
