The present invention relates to genetically modified yeast strains and methods for producing recombinant protein (e.g., collagen). The recombinant protein of the present invention is used to produce biofabricated leather or a material having similar properties to the leather containing recombinant or modified collagen. The yeast strains are modified to produce ascorbate and / or increase the production of α-ketoglutarate. |
