A proteinic biomass preparation comprising a non-native organism of the Clostridia class, which organism expresses (i) a modified aspartate kinase; (ii) a modified homoserine dehydrogenase; (iii) a modified homoserine kinase; (iv) a modified anthranilate synthase; (v) a functional lycopene pathway and the genes crtY, crtW, and crtZ; and/or (vi) a functional oleic acid pathway and the four gene operon (pfaABCD). Methods of producing proteinic biomass preparations are also described. |
