Abstract:
The present invention provides means useful for establishing an excellent isoprene monomer production system. Specifically, the present invention provides a polynucleotide of the following (a), (b), or (c): (a) a polynucleotide comprising (i) the nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:1, or (ii) the nucleotide sequence consisting of the nucleotide residues at positions 133 to 1785 in the nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:1; (b) a polynucleotide that comprises a nucleotide sequence having 90% or more identity to the nucleotide sequence of (i) or (ii) above, and encodes a protein having an isoprene synthase activity; or (c) a polynucleotide that hybridizes under a stringent condition with a polynucleotide consisting of a nucleotide sequence complementary to the nucleotide sequence of (i) or (ii) above, and encodes a protein having an isoprene synthase activity; and the like.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of producing 13-hydroxy-9(Z)-octadecenoic acid, productivity of which has been enhanced. Specifically, the present invention provides a method of producing 13-hydroxy-9(Z)-octadecenoic acid, by producing 13-hydroxy-9(Z)-octadecenoic acid from linoleic acid in the presence of a transformed microorganism that produces a protein such as the following: (A) a protein having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NOs: 4, 5, 8 to 10, 13, or 14; (B) a protein having an amino acid sequence containing one or several amino acid substitutions, deletions, insertions or additions in the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NOs: 4, 5, 8 to 10, 13, or 14, and having a linoleate 13-hydratase activity; and (C) a protein having an amino acid sequence having 90% or more identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NOs: 4, 5, 8 to 10, 13 or 14, and having a linoleate 13-hydratase activity.

Abstract:
A host cell includes a heterogeneous expression unit including: (a) a polynucleotide encoding a mevalonate kinase derived from a microorganism belonging to a genus selected from Methanocella, Corynebacterium, Methanosaeta, and Nitrosopumilus, and (b) a promoter operatively linked to the polynucleotide. The host cell is used to produce mevalonate kinase, mevalonate-5-phosphate, and isoprenoid compounds.
