Abstract:
Disclosed herein are an expression vector capable of expressing myrcene, an Escherichia coli strain transformed with the vector and having improved capability of producing myrcene and a method for producing myrcene and a method for recycling glycerol using the same. In an aspect, the transformed Escherichia coli strain of the present disclosure can produce myrcene with high purity on a large scale using glycerol or glucose as a carbon source. Also, the Escherichia coli strain of the present disclosure is economical and environment-friendly because it can produce high value-added myrcene using waste glycerol as a carbon source. In addition, the strongly volatile myrcene can be produced and isolated at the same time.
