Resting cells and acetone-dried cells of Corynebacterium sp. S-401 catalyzed the fatty acid ester synthesis of various alcohols and fatty acids. These reactions were carried out in phosphate buffer and/or organic solvents. In some cases synthetic reactions of esters in nonpolar solvents, such as n-hexane and benzene, gave better results compared with those obtained in phosphate buffer.
