Zusammenfassung:Disclosed herein are genetically engineered yeast cells capable of producing lactate from sucrose. The genetically engineered yeast cells comprise a polynucleotide encoding an exogenous lactate dehydrogenase enzyme: a polynucleotide encoding an exogenous invertase enzyme: a deletion or disruption of a native pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) gene: and a genetic modification resulting in overexpression of a native hexokinase gene.
