Abstract:Yeasts are one of the mostly used microorganisms as models in several studies. A wide range
of applications in different processes can be attributed to their intrinsic characteristics. They are eukaryotes
and therefore valuable expression hosts that require elaborate post-translational modifications.
Their arsenal of proteins has become a valuable biochemical tool for the catalysis of several reactions of
great value to the food (beverages), pharmaceutical and energy industries. Currently, the main challenge
