A MICROORGANISM OF ENTEROBACTERIACAE GENUS HABORING GENES ASSOCIATED WITH L-CARINTINE BIOSYNTHESIS AND METHOS OF PRODUCING L-CARNITINE USING THE MICROORGANISM

摘要

Provided is a microorganism belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae including: a polynucleotide encoding N-trimethyllysine hydroxylase activity derived from Neurospora crassa; a polynucelotide encoding 3-hydroxy-6-N-trimethyllysine aldolase activity derived from Neurospora crassa; a polynucleotide encoding ?-thmethylaminoaldehyde dehydrogenase activity derived from Neurospora crassa; and a polynucleotide encoding ?-butyrobetaine hydroxylase activity derived from Neurospora crassa. Provided is also a process for producing L-carnitine using the microorganism.
