Abstract: The present disclosure is to provide a method capable of producing an organic acid in high yield from an acetic acid strain using synthesis gas as a substrate. According to the present disclosure, the productivity of metabolites with C2 to C6 carbon atoms derived from synthesis gas and the selectivity of hexanoic acid production among metabolites can be improved through a first fermentation step of simultaneously providing a substrate comprising synthesis gas and sugar; and a second fermentation step of semi-mixotrophic fermentation of providing only the substrate comprising the synthesis gas. Therefore, the disclosure can contribute to sustainable chemical production using synthesis gas.

Abstract: A method of recommending a friend in a first terminal is provided. The method includes generating first interest keyword information by analyzing event information of the first terminal, receiving second interest keyword information of a second terminal, comparing the first interest keyword information and the second interest keyword information, and displaying information recommending a user of the second terminal as a friend based on a result of the comparing.

Abstract: Plant cells express a target protein, a production method thereof, and a method of producing a target protein using the same are disclosed. The plant cells have introduced therein a recombinant vector containing gene(s) encoding a target protein, and the plant cells include plant cambial meristematic cells (CMC) or callus. The cambial meristematic cells (CMCs) are a cell line containing innately undifferentiated cells isolated from a plant, wherein the cell line is a cell line isolated from the cambial tissue of the plant and has meristematic continuity without going through dedifferentiation into callus. A system of expressing a target protein using the recombinant plant cells according to the present invention can overcome the problems of conventional plant cell culture. In addition, it shows significantly high transformation efficiency, and thus can produce large amounts of target proteins, including biopharmaceutical proteins.
