Abstract:
The present disclosure provides recombinant bacteria with elevated 2-keto acid decarboxylase and alcohol transferase activities. Some recombinant bacteria further have elevated aldehyde dehydrogenase activity. Some recombinant bacteria further have reduced alcohol dehydrogenase and/or aldehyde reductase activity. Methods for the production of the recombinant bacteria, as well as for use thereof for production of various esters are also provided.
