Effect of fatty acyl-CoA supply on fatty alcohol-producing capability. Fatty alcohol-producing rate was detected in knock-out strains expressing Tafar1 (a) and Tafar1-2copy-Δfao1 strains expressing genes introducing carbon flux to fatty acyl-CoA (b). Transformants were used for inoculation into SD-LEU and fatty alcohol-producing rate was detected after 24 h culturing. Results are the mean of duplicate experiments and error bars indicate standard deviations
