Abstract

The present invention concerns a method for the biological preparation of prenol comprising culturing a microorganism genetically modified for the bioproduction of prenol, wherein the microorganism comprises a metabolic pathway for conversion of 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA into prenol by the action of an alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme and of an aldehyde dehydrogenase enzyme.
