Scheme of alkane biosynthesis in engineered S. cerevisiae strains. The genes encoding fatty acyl-CoA oxidase, POX1, aldehyde dehydrogenase, HFD1 and alcohol dehydrogenase, ADH5, were disrupted (blue) and alcohol dehydrogenase was overexpressed (red). ADs were inserted in an episomal plasmid and they were expressed to convert fatty aldehydes to alkanes (green)
