    Abstract: The present invention is a process for recovering an isoprenoid compound produced by fermentation from a fermentation medium comprising: (a) demulsifying the fermentation medium or a fraction thereof in presence of a salt and a surfactant, thereby generating a stream having an organic phase containing the isoprenoid compound and a phase heavier than the organic phase, and (b) separating the stream obtained in step (a) into the organic phase containing the isoprenoid compound, the phase heavier than the organic phase, and optionally a solid phase containing host cell debris and cells.

    Abstract: Provided herein are compositions and methods for producing myrcene by culturing genetically modified microbial host cells that express a myrcene synthase and optionally a geranyl pyrophosphate synthase. Also provided herein are isolated nucleic acid molecules that encode myrcene synthase variants derived from the Ocimum species myrcene synthase, which comprise one or more amino acid substitutions that improve in vivo performance of myrcene synthase in genetically modified microbial host cells. Also provided herein are isolated myrcene synthase variants that exhibit an improved activity for converting geranyl diphosphate into myrcene.
