Process for producing a microorganism capable of producing mucinic acid and mucinic acid, 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid and 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid diester

摘要

Provided is a method for efficiently producing mucinic acid from common organic raw materials such as glucose and galactose. A method for producing mucinic acid using glucose or galactose as a starting material or an intermediate and sequentially passing UDP-galacturonic acid and galacturonic acid as an intermediate. The UDP-galacturonic acid pyrophosphorylase activity and one or more enzyme activities selected from the UDP-glucuronic acid-4-epimerase activity, the UDP-galactose-6-dehydrogenase activity, and the galacturonic acid dehydrogenase activity are non-modified strains and Microorganisms modified to enhance in comparison.
