Abstract
The present invention relates to a polypeptide which is resistant to feedback inhibition by methionine and has an activity of homoserine O-succinyltransferase, a microorganism for producing O-succinylhomoserine which expresses the polypeptide, and a method for producing O-succinylhomoserine using the same.
Claims10
An O-succinylhomoserine producing Escherichia sp. microorganism expressing a polypeptide, having a resistance to feedback inhibition by methionine and a homoserine O-succinyitransferase activity, wherein the polypeptide has an amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:
- 29, wherein the expression of said polypeptide results in increased production of O-succinylhomoserine compared to the same Escherichia sp. microorganism not expressing said polypeptide.
