Several ω-laurolactam degrading microorganisms were isolated from soil samples. These strains were capable of growing in a medium containing ω-laurolactam as sole source of carbon and nitrogen. Among them, five strains (T7, T31, U124, U224, and U238) were identified as Cupriavidus sp. T7, Acidovorax sp. T31, Cupriavidus sp. U124, Rhodococcus sp. U224, and Sphingomonas sp. U238, respectively. The ω-laurolactam hydrolyzing enzyme from Rhodococcus sp. U224 was purified to homogeneity, and its enzymatic properties were characterized. The enzyme acts on ω-octalactam and ω-laurolactam, but other lactam compounds, amides and amino acid amides, cannot be substrates. The enzyme gene was cloned, and the deduced amino acid sequence showed high homology with 6-aminohexanoate-cyclic-dimer hydrolase (EC 3.5.2.12) from Arthrobacter sp. KI72 and Pseudomonas sp. NK87. Enzymatic synthesis of 12-aminolauric acid was performed using partially purified ω-laurolactam hydrolase from Rhodococcus sp. U224.

Running two two-step cascades in parallel anti-sense to transform an alcohol to an amine allowed the conversion of ω-hydroxy fatty acids (ω-HFAs) and α,ω-diols to the corresponding ω-amino fatty acids (ω-AmFAs) and α,ω-diamines, respectively. The network required only two enzymes namely an aldehyde reductase (AHR) and a transaminase (TA). Benzylamine served on the one hand as amine donor and on the other hand after deamination to benzaldehyde also as oxidant. All ω-HFAs tested were efficiently transformed to their corresponding ω-AmFAs using purified enzymes as well as a whole-cell system, separately expressing both the enzymes, with conversions ranging from 80-95%. Additionally, a single-cell co-expressing all enzymes successfully produced the ω-AmFAs as well as the α,ω-diamines with >90% yield. This system was extended by employing a lactonase, enabling the transformation of ?-caprolactone to its corresponding ω-AmFA with >80% conversion.

The invention relates to a method for preparing 12-aminododecanoic acid and belongs to the technical field of synthesis of long carbon chain nylon monomers. The method comprises the following steps: carrying out a substitution reaction on 10-undecenoic acid and hydrogen bromide to produce 11-bromo-undecanoic acid; carrying out a hydrocyanation reaction with a cyanide reagent K[Fe(CN)6].3H2O to produce 11-cyan-undecanoic acid; and carrying out a reduction reaction, thereby obtaining the final product 12-aminododecanoic acid. The method disclosed by the invention has the advantages of being short in synthetic route, low in cost, flexible in operation, high in reaction yield, capable of obtaining the high-purity product and the like, and is very suitable for small-dose large-scale production of pharmaceutical companies or labs.
