Improving catalytic activity of the Baeyer–Villiger monooxygenase-based Escherichia coli biocatalysts for the overproduction of (Z)-11-(heptanoyloxy)undec-9-enoic acid from ricinoleic acid [PDF]
Baeyer–Villiger monooxygenases (BVMOs) can be used for the biosynthesis of lactones and esters from ketones. However, the BVMO-based biocatalysts are not so stable under process conditions.

Enzymatic biosynthesis of ricinoleic acid estolides
Candida rugosa lipase has been shown to have sufficient activity to catalyse the enzymatic synthesis of ricinoleic acid estolides in a batch reactor. The water requirements of the reactor change during the reaction: at the beginning of the process a minimum amount of water is necessary but, later, the reaction mixture must be dried out to obtain an ...
