  • SEMI-BIOSYNTHETIC PRODUCTION OF FATTY ALCOHOLS AND FATTY ALDEHYDES
    Publication number: 20220136018
    Abstract: The present application relates to methods of producing one or more fatty alcohols and/or one or more fatty aldehydes from one or more unsaturated lipid moieties by combining the obtainment or production of the one or more unsaturated lipid moieties from a biological source with conversion by non-biological means of the one or more unsaturated lipid moieties to one or more fatty alcohols and/or one or more fatty aldehydes. The present application also relates to recombinant microorganisms having a biosynthesis pathway for the production of one or more unsaturated lipid moieties. The one or more fatty alcohols can further be chemically converted to one or more corresponding fatty acetates. The one or more fatty alcohols, one or more fatty aldehydes and/or one or more fatty acetates produced by the methods described herein may be one or more insect pheromones, one or more fragrances, one or more flavoring agents, or one or more polymer intermediates.
