Abstract:
The present invention relates to a microorganism having L-tryptophan productivity and a method for producing L-tryptophan using the same. More precisely, the present invention relates to the recombinant E. coli strain CJ600 (KCCM 10812P) having tryptophan productivity produced from the mutant form (KFCC 10066) of E. coli having L-phenylalanine productivity, wherein tryptophan auxotrophy is released, L-phenylalanine biosynthesis is blocked but tryptophan productivity is enhanced by reinforcing the gene involved in tryptophan biosynthesis, and a method of producing L-tryptophan using the same.
Abstract:
An L-threonine-producing Escherichia coli in which a promoter of a phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (ppc) gene on the chromosome is substituted with a promoter of a cysteine synthase (cysK) gene and a method of producing L-threonine by using the same are disclosed. The recombinant Escherichia coli may produce L-threonine in a high yield, and thus may be widely used in medical, pharmaceutical, and feed industries, particularly for an animal feed.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a microorganism belonging to the genus Escherichia sp. and a method for producing L-amino acid using the same. The microorganism belonging to the genus Escherichia sp. has a sucrose assimilability and L-amino acid producing ability, which is obtained by introducing a gene encoding a sucrose assimilative microorganism-derived sucrose metabolic enzyme to sucrose non-assimilative microorganism belonging to the genus Escherichia sp. having an L-amino acid producing ability and sucrose PTS (phosphoenolpyruvate dependent sucrose phosphotransferase system) activity.
Abstract:
Provided is a microorganism belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae including: a polynucleotide encoding N-trimethyllysine hydroxylase activity derived from Neurospora crassa; a polynucleotide encoding 3-hydroxy-6-N-trimethyllysine aldolase activity derived from Neurospora crassa; a polynucleotide encoding γ-trimethylaminoaldehyde dehydrogenase activity derived from Neurospora crassa; and a polynucleotide encoding γ-butyrobetaine hydroxylase activity derived from Neurospora crassa. Provided is also a process for producing L-carnitine using the microorganism.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an amino acid-producing microorganism capable of simultaneously utilizing glycerol as a carbon source, a method for preparing the microorganism, and a method for producing amino acids using the microorganism. According to the present invention, amino acids can be efficiently produced using a byproduct of biodiesel production, glycerol, thereby substituting a cheaper material for the conventional fermentation materials such as glucose.
