Abstract
The draft genome sequence of the oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica stain PO1f, a commonly used metabolic engineering host, is presented here. The approximately 20.3-Mb genome sequence of PO1f will greatly facilitate research efforts in metabolic engineering of Yarrowia lipolytica for value-added chemical production.
