1. A recombinant yeast cell comprising heterologous polynucleotides encoding a GDP-mannose 4,6-dehydratase (Gmd) polypeptide, a GDP-4-keto-6-deoxymannose 3,5-epimerase 4-reductase (WcaG) polypeptide, an oligosaccharide transporter polypeptide, a fucosyltransferase polypeptide, a α-L-fucosidase polypeptide, and a L-fucokinase/GDP-L-fucose phosphorylase (FKP) polypeptide, wherein the heterologous polynucleotides are operably linked to at least one expression control polynucleotide.
