摘要:
A process for the improved separation of a hydrophobic organic solution from an aqueous culture medium is provided. The process includes preparing an aqueous culture medium of a metabolically active cell having a decreased activity; contacting of the aqueous culture medium with a hydrophobic organic solution comprising a substrate for biotransformation; conducting a biotransformation of the substrate; and separating the hydrophobic organic solution comprising a biotransformed substrate from the aqueous culture medium. The decreased activity of the metabolically active cell is in comparison to a wild-type of the active cell and the decreased activity is of at least of one enzyme that catalyzes one reaction of β-oxidation of fatty acids. The invention further provides a metabolically active cell that has a decreased activity, compared to its wild-type, of an enzyme that catalyzes one of the reactions of the β-oxidation of fatty acids, including an enzyme selected from FadA, FadB, FadD, FadL and FadE as well as variants thereof.

The present invention provides genetically engineered microbial strains, in particular genetically engineered yeast strains, that produce at least 0.5 mg per g CDW of a sphingoid base according to Formula I or a salt or ester thereof. The present invention provides a method to obtain genetically engineered microbial strains producing at least 0.5 mg per g CDW of a sphingoid base according to Formula I or a salt or ester thereof. The method comprises the steps of: a) increasing the expression of a polynucleotide encoding an enzyme having ceramide synthase activity and/or an enzyme having ceramidase activity, the latter being capable of preferentially, or even specifically, hydrolyzing ceramides containing a sphingoid base according to Formula I, and/or b) decreasing the expression of a polynucleotide encoding an enzyme having sphingolipid Δ8-desaturase activity and/or an enzyme having ceramidase activity, the latter being capable of preferentially, or even specifically, hydrolyzing ceramides containing phytosphingosine or dihydrosphingosine as sphingoid base, and isolating strains with the required productivity.

摘要:
The invention provides a whole cell catalyst which expresses a recombinant α-dioxygenase or the combination of a recombinant fatty acid reductase and a phosphopantetheinyl transferase phosphopantetheinylating the fatty acid reductase, and which in addition to the α-dioxygenase and/or the combination of fatty acid reductase and phosphopantetheinyl transferase expresses a transaminase, characterized in that the phosphopantetheinyl transferase and/or transaminase is preferably recombinant; and a method for the conversion of a fatty acid, ω-hydroxy fatty acid, ω-oxo fatty acid or a monoester thereof to an amine, comprising oxidation of the fatty acid, ω-hydroxy fatty acid, ω-oxo fatty acid or the monoester thereof to an oxidation product by contacting with an alkane hydroxylase and/or alcohol dehydrogenase, contacting the oxidation product with a phosphopantetheinylated fatty acid reductase or a α-dioxygenase to give an aldehyde, and contacting the aldehyde with a transaminase.
