Boosting the hydroxyfatty acid synthesis in Escherichia coli by expression of Bacillus megaterium glucose dehydrogenase
This study devised an effective method for the direct production of hydroxyfatty acids (HFAs) from free fatty acids (FFAs) using Escherichia coli. By employing fatty acid hydroxylase P450BM3 and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) to convert FFAs to HFAs, high-specificity production of C12 HFAs was achieved...
