To simplify the fermentationprocess by eliminating the separate saccharificationstep, numerous genetically engineered S. cerevisiaestrains capable of secreting glucoamylase and /or α-amylase have been developed. This work undertakes a different approach to eliminate the saccharificationstep. The cul...
