Method of Producing Lipid by Using Beta-Ketoacyl-ACP Synthase |
摘要 |
A method of producing a lipid, containing the following steps (1) and (2); and a transformant obtained by introducing a gene encoding the following protein (a) or (b) into a host:
(1) introducing a gene encoding the following protein (a) or (b) into a host, and thereby obtaining a transformant, and(2) collecting a lipid from the resulting transformant:
(a) A protein consisting of an amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1; and
(b) A protein consisting of an amino acid sequence having 60% or more identity with the amino acid sequence of the protein (a), and having β-ketoacyl-ACP synthase activity. |

1. A method of producing a lipid, comprising the following steps (1) and (2):
(1) introducing a gene encoding the following protein (a) or (b) and a gene encoding an acyl-ACP thioesterase having the specificity to a medium chain acyl-ACP into a host, and thereby obtaining a transformant, and (2) collecting a lipid from the resulting transformant; wherein (a) and (b) are:(a) A protein consisting of an amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1; and(b) A protein consisting of an amino acid sequence having 60% or more identity with the amino acid sequence of the protein (a), and having β-ketoacyl-ACP synthase activity. |
