    摘要: The present invention relates to a method for heterologously expressing an ornithine acyl-ACP N-acyltransferase in a microorganism, wherein the expression of the ornithine acyl-ACP N-acyltransferase protein catalyses the synthesis of lyso-ornithine lipid in the microorganism. The invention further provides for the production of an ornithine lipid in instances where the microorganism endogenously expresses lyso-ornithine dependent acyl-ACP O-acyltransferase. The invention also provides for recombinant microorganisms capable of producing lyso-ornithine and ornithine lipids which have application as biosurfactants, specifically emulsification activity.
