(author)Engineered strains of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae are intensively studied as production platforms for aromatic compounds such as hydroxycinnamic acids, stilbenoids and flavonoids. Heterologous pathways for production of these compounds use L-phenylalanine and/or L-tyrosine, generated by the yeast shikimate pathway, as aromatic...journal article 2021

Else-Hassing, J. (author), de Groot, P.A. (author), Marquenie, Vita R. (author), Pronk, J.T. (author), Daran, J.G. (author)The organic compound 2-phenylethanol (2PE) has a pleasant floral scent and is intensively used in the cosmetic and food industries. Microbial production of 2PE by phenylalanine bioconversion or de novo biosynthesis from sugar offer sustainable, reliable and natural production processes compared to chemical synthesis. Despite the ability of...journal article 2019
