Provided is a mutant of propionyl-CoA transferase from Clostridium propionicum that can convert lactate into lactyl-CoA with high efficiency in a method of preparing a polylactate (PLA) or PLA copolymer using microorganisms. Unlike conventional propionyl-CoA transferase which is weakly expressed in E. coli, when a mutant of propiony-CoA transferase from Clostridium propionicum is introduced into recombinant E. coli, lactyl-CoA can be supplied very smoothly, thereby enabling highly efficient preparation of polylactate (PLA) and PLA copolymer.

摘要:
Provided is a method of preparing polylactate (PLA) or a copolymer thereof using a mutant microorganism in which a gene participating in a coenzyme A (CoA) donor- and lactate-producing pathway is genetically manipulated to increase the productivity of a CoA donor and lactate. Amounts of the CoA donor and the lactate are simultaneously increased in a microbial metabolic pathway to enable effective biosynthesis of PLA and a hydroxyalkanoate-lactate copolymer having a high content of lactate, which is industrially useful.

摘要:
A mutant capable of producing 1,4-butanediol and a method of preparing 1,4-butanediol using the same are provided. The mutant microorganism is prepared by introducing and amplifying genes encoding enzymes converting succinate into 4-hydroxybutyrate and 4-hydroxybutyrate into 1,4-butanediol in a microorganism capable of producing succinate. The method includes culturing the mutant in a medium containing carbohydrate and obtaining 1,4-butanediol from the culture. Thus, 1,4-butanediol, which is essential in chemical industry, can be prepared in a biological process.

A method of synthesizing optically-active (S)-3-hydroxybutyric acid and (S)-3-hydroxybutyrate ester using a mutated microorganism is provided. More particularly, a mutated microorganism for preparing (S)-3-hydroxybutyric acid transformed with a gene encoding β-ketothiolase, a gene encoding (S)-3-hydroxybutyryl CoA dehydrogenase and a gene encoding acyl CoA hydrolase; a method of preparing (S)-3-hydroxybutyric acid using the mutated microorganism; a mutated microorganism for preparing (S)-3-hydroxybutyrate ester transformed with a gene encoding β-ketothiolase, a gene encoding (S)-3-hydroxybutyryl CoA dehydrogenase, a gene encoding acyl CoA hydrolase and a gene encoding lipase; and a method of preparing (S)-3-hydroxybutyrate ester using the mutated microorganism are provided.Accordingly, (S)-3-hydroxybutyric acid with high optical purity may be produced from acetyl CoA produced in glycolysis of a microorganism by a simple process involving the manipulation of a metabolic pathway by a recombinant gene introduced into the microorganism without using a high-cost metal catalyst or a substrate. Further, (S)-3-hydroxybutyrate ester and lactone of (S)-3-hydroxybutyrate ester may be simply produced from (S)-3-hydroxybutyric acid produced by the above method using lipase.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for producing middle-chain-length polyhydroxyalkanoate (MCL-PHA) using a maoC gene. The producing method of MCL-PHA according to the present invention comprises the steps of transforming a microorganism with the maoC gene to give a transformant, the microorganism being deleted of a fadB gene and containing a PHA synthase gene; culturing the transformant in medium containing a C6-10 carbon source; and obtaining PHA consisting of monomers with 6–10 carbon atoms. When the maoC gene whose function has not yet been established is used according to the present invention, high quality PHA with a higher number of carbon atoms than the prior PHA can be produced at a higher efficiency.
