Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The invention generally relates to the production of a fatty alcohol composition from recombinant microbial cells. The fatty alcohols are produced by expressing a gene encoding a heterologous fatty alcohol forming acyl-CoA reductase (“FAR”); a gene encoding a heterologous thioesterase (“TE”) gene and a gene encoding an acyl-CoA synthetase (“ACS”).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An expression vector comprising the recombinant polynucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:16. 2. The expression vector of claim 1 , wherein said vector further comprises a gene of interest. 3. An expression vector comprising the recombinant polynucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:62. 4. The expression vector of claim 3 , wherein said vector further comprises a gene of interest. 5. A host cell comprising the expression vector of claim 1 . 6. A host cell comprising the expression vector of claim 3 . 7. A recombinant polynucleotide sequence comprising SEQ ID NO:16. 8. A recombinant polynucleotide sequence comprising SEQ ID NO:62.
