Abstract

A method is provided for modifying yeast to express mutant avian farnesyl disphospate synthase and the resulting modified yeast. The yeast advantageously includes additional mutants including but not limited to having ergosterol dependent growth and being erg-. The modified yeast are beneficial for the production of various terpenes including diterpenes.
