Characterization of IS1541-like elements in Yersinia enterocolitica and Yersinia pseudotuberculosis.

abstract：:The wine yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is central in the production of aroma compounds during fermentation. Some of the most important yeast-derived aroma compounds produced are esters. The esters ethyl acetate and isoamyl acetate are formed from alcohols and acetyl-CoA in a reaction catalysed by alcohol acetyltransf...
