Corynebacterium sp. mutant microorganism producing l-glutamic acid and method for producing l-glutamic acid using same

Abstract

The present invention relates to a Corynebacterium sp. mutant microorganism producing L-glutamic acid and a method of producing L-glutamic acid using the same, and more specifically, to a novel deoxyribose-phosphate aldolase variant involved in the L-glutamic acid biosynthetic pathway, a polynucleotide, and a transformant, as well as a method of producing L-glutamic acid using the same. The deoxyribose-phosphate aldolase variant according to the present invention is obtained by deleting one or more amino acids in the amino acid sequence constituting deoxyribose-phosphate aldolase to change the enzymatic activity of the deoxyribose-phosphate aldolase, and a recombinant microorganism comprising the deoxyribose-phosphate aldolase variant is capable of efficiently producing L-glutamic acid.
