Method of producing fatty alcohol
Abstract:
A method of producing a long-chain fatty alcohol, containing culturing a microorganism wherein expression of a gene encoding a 3-ketoacyl-ACP synthase and expression of a gene encoding a fatty acyl-CoA reductase are enhanced; a method of providing ability to produce a long-chain fatty alcohol for a microorganism wherein expression of a gene encoding a 3-ketoacyl-ACP synthase and expression of a gene encoding a fatty acyl-CoA reductase are enhanced in a microorganism cell; and a transformant of a microorganism in which expression of a gene encoding a β-ketoacyl-ACP synthase and expression of a gene encoding a fatty acyl-CoA reductase are enhanced.
