Abstract
Provided are a microorganism for producing retinol, in which retinol biosynthetic genes are introduced; and a method of producing retinol, the method including a step of culturing the microorganism. The microorganism of the present invention may have an improved ability to produce retinol, and thus it may be efficiently used in producing retinol. Based on the method of producing retinol, the method including the step of culturing the microorganism, the retinol production efficiency may be improved.
Claims8
A microorganism for producing retinol, in which geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase (GGPP synthase, crtE), phytoene synthase (crtYB), desaturase (crtl), beta-carotene 15,15′-monooxygenase (β-carotene 15,15′-monooxygenase, BCMO), and retinol dehydrogenase (ybbO) protein activities are enhanced.
