Abstract

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an industrially preferred cell factory for the heterologous production of proteins and chemicals. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of the laboratory strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae LW2591Y, which has been designed for robust and efficient assembly of multigene pathways.
