Abstract
⺠Itaconic acid is a platform chemical currently produced by Aspergillus terreus. ⺠The itaconic acid biosynthesis pathway and gene region have been finally identified. ⺠Current optimisation targets: space-time yield, new substrates, final concentration. ⺠New microbial production platforms are developed which might replace A. terreus. ⺠Reliable small scale screening platforms are mandatory for further improvement.
