Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis expression of heterologous cytochrome P450 enzyme in combination with their cognate reductase for omega-hydroxylation of octanoic acid in a yeast strain, whose fatty acid synthase is engineered for octanoic acid production, results in de novo biosynthesis of 8-hydroxyoctanoic acid up to 3 mg/l. Cytochromes P450 activities are limiting 8-hydroxyoctanoic acid synthesis. The hydroxylation of both externally added and intracellularly produced octanoic acid is strongly dependent on the carbon source used, with ethanol being preferred Saccharomyces cerevisiae
