Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method based on the use of restriction enzyme digestion and ligation via cleavage sites, thereby to prepare two or more standardized expression cassettes.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a recombinant yeast cell which is capable of producing one or more of 4-methyl itaconate or 1-methyl itaconate. The invention also relates to a recombinant yeast cell which is capable of producing itaconic acid and which overexpresses: a nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide having cis-aconitate decarboxylase activity; and a nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide which catalyzes a reaction towards acetyl CoA. These recombinant yeast cells may be used in processes for the production of itaconic acid, 4-methyl itaconate or 1-methyl itaconate.
