| abstract |
Recombinant yeast cells contain a reductive TCA pathway from phosphoenolpyruvate or pyruvate to succinate. At least one metabolic step in the pathway includes a reaction of NADPH to produce NADP+. The yeast cell contains at least one exogenous NADPH-dependent gene in the pathway from phosphoenolpyruvate or pyruvate to succinate, preferably an NADPH-dependent malate dehydrogensase or fumarate reducase gene (or both). |
