In this study, Y. lipolytica was engineered to produce crotonic acid via the butanol-forming route. Firstly, the crotonase and 3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase genes from Clostridium beijerinckii, and the thioesterase gene from Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron were heterologously expressed in Y. lipolytica, the engineered
