The invention relates to biochemical synthesis of 6-amino caproic acid from 6-aminohex-2-enoic acid compound or from 6-amino-2-hydroxyhexanoic acid, by treatment with an enzyme having α,β-enoate reductase activity towards molecules containing an α,β-enoate group and a primary amino group. The invention also relates to processes for obtaining suitable genetically engineered cells for being used in such biotransformation process, and to precursor fermentation of 6-amino caproic acid from intermediates leading to 6-amino caproic acid. Finally, the invention relates to certain novel biochemically produced compounds, namely 6-aminohex-2-enoic acid, 6-aminohexanoic acid, as well as to caprolactam produced therefrom and to nylon-6 and other derivatives produced from such biochemically produced compounds or caprolactam.
本发明涉及从6-氨基己-2-烯酸化合物或从6-氨基-2-羟基己酸经由酶处理,该酶具有对含有α,β-烯酸基团和一级氨基的分子具有α,β-烯酸还原酶活性的生物化学合成6-氨基己酸的方法。本发明还涉及获得适用于此类生物转化过程的合适基因工程细胞的方法以及从导致6-氨基己酸的中间体中的前体发酵。最后,本发明涉及某些新型的生物化学合成的化合物,即6-氨基己-2-烯酸,6-氨基己酸,以及从中生产的己内酰胺和从这些生物化学合成化合物或己内酰胺生产的尼龙6和其他衍生物。
