Abstract

Provided herein are recombinant yeast cells having an active 3-Hydroxypropionic Acid (3-HP) pathway and further comprising a heterologous polynucleotide encoding an aspartate 1-decarboxylase (ADC) of the Class Insecta, Bivalvia, Branchioporia, Gastropoda, or Leptocardii. Also described are methods of using the recombinant yeast cells to produce 3-HP and acrylic acid.
