  • Publication number: 20240279706
    Abstract: The present invention is related to a novel process for production of retinyl acetate in a host cell, particularly oleaginous yeast such as e.g. Yarrowia, wherein the product purity could be increased with reduction of unwanted side-products. Particularly, the novel process comprises fermentation in the presence of ethanol, such as e.g. in a fed-batch fermentation process. Such process is especially useful in a biotechnological process for production of vitamin A.

  • Patent number: 12049658
    Abstract: The present invention is related to production of retinyl esters, such as in particular retinyl acetate, an important building block for production of vitamin A. The retinyl esters might be generated via enzymatic conversion of retinol which process includes the use of enzymes with acetyl-transferase (ATF) activity, thus acetylating retinol into retinol/retinyl acetate. Said process is particularly useful for biotechnological production of vitamin A.
