PRODUCTION OF ω-AMINO FATTY ACID

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a biotechnological method for production of ω-amino fatty acids as efficient as possible for yield, carbon balance and/or nitrogen balance and/or purity.SOLUTION: In a first embodiment, a whole-cell catalyst expresses a combination consisting of a recombinant α-dioxygenase or a recombinant fatty acid reductase and the phosphopantetheinyl transferase which changes the fatty acid reductase into phosphopantetheinyl, and also expresses a transaminase. Preferably the phosphopantetheinyl transferase and/or the transaminase is a recombinant one.
