Rewiring carbon metabolism in yeast for high level production of aromatic chemicals

Microbial production of aromatic amino acid (AAA)-derived chemicals remains an outstanding metabolic engineering challenge. Here, the authors engineer baker’s yeast for high levels p-coumaric acid production by rewiring the central carbon metabolism and channeling more flux to the AAA biosynthetic p...
