Integrated strain- and process design enable production of 220 g L−1 itaconic acid with Ustilago maydis

Abstract Background Itaconic acid is an unsaturated, dicarboxylic acid which finds a wide range of applications in the polymer industry and as a building block for fuels, solvents and pharmaceuticals. Currently, Aspergillus terreus is used for industrial production, with titers above 100 g L−1 depen...
