The compositions and methods of the disclosure can be used to produce a cannabinoid in a host cell, such as a yeast cell. For example, the disclosure features host cells (e.g., yeast cells) modified to express one or more enzymes of a cannabinoid biosynthetic pathway, such as an acyl activating enzyme (AAE), a tetraketide synthase (TKS), a cannabigerolic acid synthase (CBGaS), and/or an olivetolic acid cyclase (OAC). |
