  • Method for producing objective substance
    Patent number: 10883124
    Abstract: A method for producing an objective substance such as vanillin and vanillic acid is provided. An objective substance is produced from a carbon source or a precursor of the objective substance by using a microorganism having an objective substance-producing ability, which microorganism has been modified to have a Bacteroidetes O-methyltransferase (OMT) gene, especially an OMT gene encoding OMT having a specific mutation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 24, 2019
    Date of Patent: January 5, 2021
    Assignee: AJINOMOTO CO., INC.
    Inventors: Benjamin Mijts, Sheetal Modi, Michael Siddiqui, Christine Roche
  • A HIGH-THROUGHPUT (HTP) GENOMIC ENGINEERING PLATFORM FOR IMPROVING SACCHAROPOLYSPORA SPINOSA
    Publication number: 20200115705
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a HTP microbial genomic engineering platform for Saccharopolyspora spp. that is computationally driven and integrates molecular biology, automation, and advanced machine learning protocols. This integrative platform utilizes a suite of HTP molecular tool sets to create HTP genetic design libraries, which are derived from, inter alia, scientific insight and iterative pattern recognition.
