## Abstract Polyketides are a group of natural products that have gained much interest due to their use as antibiotics, cholesterol lowering agents, immunosuppressors, and as other drugs. Many organisms that naturally produce polyketides are difficult to cultivate and only produce these metabolites
We describe a simple method using 13 C labeling and NMR spectroscopy to determine the flux contributions of alternative pathways in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that produce the same metabolite with identical labeling patterns. Cells were incubated with a 13 C-labeled precursor for one of the branches,
## Abstract __Saccharomyces cerevisiae__ has in several cases been proven to be a suitable host for the production of natural products and was recently exploited for the production of non‐ribosomal peptides. Synthesis of non‐ribosomal peptides (NRPs) is mediated by NRP synthetases (NRPSs), modular
Overexpression of the homologous protein proteinase A (PrA) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been achieved by inserting the PrA gene (PEP4) with its own promoter on a 2µ multicopy plasmid. With this system the specific PrA production rate was found to be described well by a linear function of the oxi
