Efficient production of mycosporine-like amino acids, natural sunscreens, in Yarrowia lipolytica

Abstract Background Mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs), including shinorine and porphyra-334, are gaining attention as safe natural sunscreens. The production of MAAs has been achieved in diverse microbial hosts, including Saccharomyces cerevisiae. While S. cerevisiae is the most extensively studie...
