Abstract
The present invention provides a modified Bacillus cell for the production of a compound of interest, wherein the Bacillus cell comprises a genetic modification that leads to decreased production of enzymes with lipase and/or esterase activity. The use of compounds of interest produced with said improved Bacillus host cells reduces the formation of malodour and/or off-flavour when used for applications such as washing or cleaning or as feed or food additives.
