Recombinant mutant microorganism having malonic acid production capability and method for producing malonic acid using same

Abstract

The present invention relates to a recombinant mutant microorganism having malonic acid production capability, and a method for producing malonic acid using the same and, more particularly, to a mutant microorganism having malonic acid production capability, resulting from the introduction of a semialdehyde dehydrogenase-encoding gene into a microorganism capable of producing malonic semialdehyde,and a method for producing malonic acid using the same. Biologically expressing an enzyme having semialdehyde dehydrogenase activity, the mutant microorganism according to the present invention is useful for effectively producing malonic acid from beta alanine or various carbon sources, with malonic semialdehyde used as an intermediate.
