[DIYbio] Tasty Microbes?

I'm determined to get back into this. This idea is going to be mostly theoretical but we could maybe make some progress.

Any Asimov fans in the house? Well in that science fiction universe the majority of food is made from highly engineered and processed yeast (among other microorganisms)

Seems like a great idea to me! My initial idea was yeast that produces a variety of proteins and fats found in bovine skeletal muscle tissue. Obviously that isn't a starting point, and might not even work.

So to begin... any genes that make a particular flavorful proteins? any proteins to be removed from yeast to make it more palatable? other modifications that would help?

looking forward to your ideas
