Recombinant Corynebacterium capable of producing biliverdin IX-alpha and method of producing biliverdin IX-alpha using the same

摘要

Disclosed are recombinant strain of a genus Corynebacterium capable of producing biliverdin IX-alpha (IXα) and a method of producing biliverdin IX-alpha using the same. The recombinant strain is capable of synthesizing biliverdin IX-alpha in an environmentally friendly manner using only glucose without the addition of any nitrogen source, thus replacing the synthesis of biliverdin IX-alpha through chemical treatment, which is a conventional synthetic method causing environmental pollution problems.
