The present invention provides production of hydroxylated fatty acid by a hydration reaction using a novel enzyme derived from Lactobacillus and using fatty acid as a substrate, and further, a production method of oxo fatty acid by an enzyme reaction or chemical oxidation reaction using the hydroxylated fatty acid as a substrate. In addition, a valuable novel rare fatty acid obtained by such production method is also provided.
本发明提供了一种以脂肪酸为底物,使用源自乳酸杆菌的新型酶,通过水合反应生产羟基化脂肪酸的方法,并进一步提供了一种以羟基化脂肪酸为底物,通过酶反应或化学氧化反应生产氧化脂肪酸的方法。此外,还提供了通过这种生产方法获得的一种有价值的新型稀有脂肪酸。
