  • Patent number: 10378032
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a microorganism of the genus Escherichia producing more L-tryptophan by inactivating the activity of phosphatase. Additionally, the present disclosure relates to a method for producing L-tryptophan using the microorganism of the genus Escherichia.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 10, 2016
    Date of Patent: August 13, 2019
    Assignee: CJ CHEILJEDANG CORPORATION
    Inventors: Hye Min Park, Baek Seok Lee, Seok Myung Lee, Kyungrim Kim, Kwang Ho Lee, Ki Yong Cheong, Keun Cheol Lee, Hyeongpyo Hong
  • Patent number: 10202609
    Abstract: Disclosed are a recombinant microorganism having enhanced L-amino acid producibility, wherein the recombinant microorganism is transformed to have an inactivated phage receptor thereof, and a method of producing an L-amino acid using the recombinant microorganism. The use of the recombinant microorganism may enable the production of the L-amino acid in a highly efficient manner.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10041099
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a microorganism able to produce L-threonine or L-tryptophan, and to a method for producing L-threonine or L-tryptophan by using same. More specifically, the present invention relates to: recombinant Escherichia coli which is more efficient in producing L-threonine or L-tryptophan by increasing the ability to produce ATP which is used as the most plentiful energy source in cells when producing L-threonine or L-tryptophan; and a method for producing L-threonine or L-tryptophan by using same.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20170137854
    Abstract: The present application relates to a microorganism of the genus Escherichia producing L-tryptophan and, more specifically, to a microorganism of the genus Escherichia with improved activity of producing L-tryptophan by weakening or inactivating the activity of endogenous 6-phosphogluconate dehydratase and 2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate aldolase. Additionally, the present application relates to a method for producing L-tryptophan using the microorganism of the genus Escherichia.
