Title:
MICROBIAL STRAIN, PROTEIN, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING GALLIC ACID USING MICROBIAL STRAIN OR PROTEIN
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/075674
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The purpose of the present technology is to provide: a protein that has a protocatechuic acid 5-position oxidizing activity and can efficiently generate gallic acid from protocatechuic acid; and a microbial strain that expresses said protein. In the present invention, the use of a protocatechuic acid 5-position oxidizing enzyme derived from Comamonas microbes or a protein having at least 70% identity with the amino acid sequence of said protocatechuic acid 5-position oxidizing enzyme allows efficient production of gallic acid from protocatechuic acid. Gallic acid can be produced from protocatechuic acid as a result of fermentation using a microbial strain into which a gene that codes for said enzyme has been introduced.
