CRISPR-Cas genome engineering of esterase activity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae steers aroma formation

Abstract Objective Saccharomyces cerevisiae is used worldwide for the production of ale-type beers. This yeast is responsible for the production of the characteristic fruity aroma compounds. Esters constitute an important group of aroma active secondary metabolites produced by S. cerevisiae. Previou...
