Zusammenfassung: | A process for preparing flavoured and fermented alcoholic beverages comprising the use of recombinant yeast host cells expressing one or more heterologous enzymes for making a flavour compound and a native ethanol production pathway. The flavour compound may be lactic acid (using lactate dehydrogenase or mutated malate dehydrogenase), vanillin (using feruloyl-CoA-synthase and enoyl-CoA-hydratase), isoamyl acetate (using alcohol acetyl transferase) or 4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-butanone (using phenylalanine-ammonium lyase, cinnimate-4-hydroxylase, coumarate-CoA ligase and benzalacetone synthase). The recombinant yeast host cells can be used in a subsequent production process to make flavoured alcoholic beverage products, such as beers. |
