Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of metabolic engineering strategies that have been applied to S. cerevisiae for converting renewable resources into the previously identified chemical targets is presented, including organic acids (lactic, succinic, levulinic and 3-hydroxypropionic acids), sugar alcohols (xylitol and sorbitol), furans and derivatives (hydroxymethylfurfural, furfural and furandicarboxylic acid), biohydrocarbons (isoprene), and its derivatives.
