Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a strain capable of producing succinate using starch accumulated in microalgae which grow using carbon dioxide as a direct carbon source without converting it to glucose and a method for producing succinate using the same. The present disclosure provides a strain producing succinate from carbon dioxide, selected from a group consisting of Corynebacterium glutamicum BL-1-pBlAmyS (KCTC 12585BP) and Corynebacterium glutamicum BL-1-pSbAmyA (KCTC 12587BP). The present disclosure also provides a method for producing succinate from carbon dioxide, including fermenting starch by inoculating the strain producing succinate from carbon dioxide in a starch-containing medium.
Abstract:
The furfural-resistant strain containing the furfural-resistant gene according to the present disclosure may be effectively grown in a furfural-containing medium. Accordingly, the problem that microorganism fermentation was difficult because toxic by-products such as furfural are contained in a hydrolysate derived from inedible lignocellulosic biomass may be solved. Further, according to the method for producing a strain of the present disclosure, the resistant gene may be selected from relatively small number of target genes. Thus, time, cost and the like for developing the resistant strain may be saved. Further, this method for identifying genes may be broadly applied to methods for identifying various unknown functional genes in addition to the furfural-resistant gene.
