It refers to a whole cell catalyst that expresses a recombinant a-dioxygenase or the combination of a recombinant fatty acid reductase and a phosphopanteteinyl transferase that phosphopanteteinyl fatty acid reductase, and which in addition to a-dioxygenase and / or the combination of fatty acid phosphopanteteinyl transferase reductase expresses a transaminase, characterized in that the phosphopanteteinyl transferase and / or transaminase is preferably recombinant and a method for the conversion of a fatty acid, w-hydroxy fatty acid, w-oxo fatty acid or one of its monoesters , in order to obtain an amine, comprising the oxidation stages of fatty acid, w-hydroxy fatty acid, w-oxo fatty acid or one of its monoesters so as to obtain an oxidation product by contacting an alkane hydroxylase and / or alcohol dehydrogenase, contact the oxidation product with a phosphopanteteinylated fatty acid reductase or an a-dioxygenase so as to obtain an aldehyde, and contacting the aldehyde with a transaminase. |
