Abstract:
The present invention relates to a yeast with a deleted ALD3 gene and a method of producing 2-phenylethanol using the same. Desirably, the present invention relates to the method of producing 2-phenylethanol using S.cerevisiae in which the ALD3 gene is deleted, and relates to a method for increasing a production of 2-phenylethanol by including phenylalanin in a culture medium as a single nitrogen source. In addition, a mutant with a deleted ALD2 is created in order to increase production efficiency, and the production amount of the 2-phenylethanol can be increased by overexpressing an ALD80 gene or additionally including a plasmid consisting of an ARO9 or ARO10 gene. The method of producing 2-phenylethanol according to the present invention has the advantage of being able to produce with a high yield at low costs under a more stable working condition than a chemical synthesis, while including fewer compounds harmful to a human body.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A composition containing a Yap1 mutant gene for enhancing HMF resistance of yeast is provided to enhance resistance to HMF which is a yeast growth inhibitor. CONSTITUTION: A composition for enhancing HMF(hydroxymethylfurfural) of yeast contains a Yap1 mutant gene encoding an amino acid sequence of sequence number 2 or an expression protein thereof. The Yap1 mutant gene has a base sequence of sequence number 1. The Yap1 mutant gene is inserted into an expression vector. A method for preparing HMF resistant yeast comprises a step of preparing a Yap1 mutant gene encoding an amino acid of sequence number 2; a step of preparing a recombinant vector containing the Yap1 mutant gene; and a step of transforming the recombinant vector into yeast.
