  • Method for quantitatively controlling plasmid copy number in antibiotic-free plasmid maintenance system
    Patent number: 12247242
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a gene expression cassette including a synthetic 5? untranslated region (5? UTR), a promoter, and a regulatory gene; a recombinant vector including a replication origin and the gene expression cassette; a recombinant microorganism which has the recombinant vector introduced thereinto and shows alleviated segregational instability and; a method for preparing a recombinant microorganism having alleviated segregational instability by introducing the recombinant vector thereinto; and a method for quantitatively controlling a plasmid copy number in a recombinant microorganism.

  • Microorganism strain for high-performance metabolism of biomass-derived carbon source
    Patent number: 11535854
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel microorganism capable of metabolizing various carbon sources at high rates. A novel microorganism according to the present invention was observed to grow at a very high rate in a minimal medium/nutrient medium, etc., compared to microorganisms such as Escherichia coli, and shows resistance at a high initial sugar/salt concentrations as well as being able to produce lycopene and 2,3-butanediol through genetic manipulation. Therefore, the novel microorganism can be used in various production fields of high value-added compounds using microorganisms.
