The present invention provides genetically modified eukaryotic host cells that produce isoprenoid precursors or isoprenoid compounds. A subject genetically modified host cell comprises increased activity levels of one or more of mevalonate pathway enzymes, increased levels of prenyltransferase activity, and decreased levels of squalene synthase activity. Methods are provided for the production of an isoprenoid compound or an isoprenoid precursor in a subject genetically modified eukaryotic host cell. The methods generally involve culturing a subject genetically modified host cell under conditions that promote production of high levels of an isoprenoid or isoprenoid precursor compound.

The present invention provides genetically modified eukaryotic host cells exhibiting increased activity levels of one or more enzymes that generate precursors to be utilized by the mevalonate pathway enzymes, increased activity levels of one or more mevalonate pathway enzymes, prenyl transferase, and/or decreased levels of squalene synthase activity; such cells are useful for producing isoprenoid compounds. The present invention provides genetically modified eukaryotic host cells that produce higher levels of acetyl-CoA than a control cell; such cells are useful for producing a variety of products, including isoprenoid compounds. Methods are provided for the production of an isoprenoid compound or an isoprenoid precursor in a subject genetically modified eukaryotic host cell. The methods generally involve culturing a subject genetically modified host cell under conditions that promote production of high levels of an isoprenoid or isoprenoid precursor compound.
