Abstract:
1. A method of producing a low molecular weight organic aglycon compound comprising following steps: a) fermenting a microorganism cell in a suitable medium where the microorganism is capable of growing, the microorganism comprising: b) deglycosylating the glycosylated form of the aglycon; and c) recovering the aglycon compound; (i) wherein the low molecular weight organic aglycon compound has a molecular weight from 50 to 3000, and (ii) wherein the glycosyltransferase is a glycosyltransferase capable of conjugating a sugar to the aglycon compound; and wherein the microorganism cell is a yeast cell; and wherein the low molecular weight organic aglycon compound is vanillin.
