The present disclosure concerns recombinant yeast host cells expressing cell-associated heterologous food and/or feed enzymes which are expressed during the propagation phase of the recombinant yeast hosts cells. The recombinant yeast host cells can be used in a subsequent production process to make food and/or feed products, for example, baked products.

The present invention relates to a Bacillus licheniformis host cell for increased production of secreted proteins. Specifically, the invention relates to a Bacillus licheniformis host with a genetic modification that leads to increased production of a heterologous, non-native, secreted enzyme. Specifically, the present invention relates to a Bacillus licheniformis host cell expressing a) a first polypeptide having peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (EC 5.2.1.8) activity, said first polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1, or an amino acid sequence being a least 81% identical to SEQ ID NO: 1, and b) a second polypeptide having amylase activity, wherein said second polypeptide is heterologous to said Bacillus licheniformis host cell.
