| 摘要 |
This document describes biochemical pathways for producing 6-hydroxyhexanoic acid using a monooxygenase to form a 7-hydroxyoctanoate intermediate, which can be converted to 6-hydroxyhexanoate using a polypeptide having monooxygenase, secondary alcohol dehydrogenase, or esterase activity. 6-hydroxyhexanoic acid can be enzymatically converted to adipic acid, caprolactam, 6-aminohexanoic acid, hexamethylenediamine or 1,6-hexanediol. This document also describes recombinant hosts producing 6-hydroxyhexanoic acid as well as adipic acid, caprolactam, 6-aminohexanoic acid, hexamethylenediamine and 1,6-hexanediol. |
