BIOLOGICAL SYSTEM FOR MANUFACTURE OF POLYHYDROXYALKANOATE POLYMERS CONTAINING 4-HYDROXY ACID

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide the technology and process for stably making a transgenic organism synthesizing PHA including 4-hydroxy-butyric acid as only one component or as co-monomer by using the recombination process in which another gene is introduced into the transgenic PHP producer, in order to create a new strain synthesizing the substitute PHA monomer (for example, 4-HB).

SOLUTION: A recombinant host that stably incorporates the gene encoding different kinds of enzyme selected from polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase and 4HB-CoA transferase into the genome.
