[5]
On the other hand, formate dehydrogenase to catalyze the oxidation of formic acid, the second substrate, NAD + reduction and the NADH and to CO resulting 2 is an enzyme that generates. NADH is known as an important matter throughout the metabolism of the strains. It is possible to increase the reducing power microbial NADH through the increase because it can be advantageous to produce the target substance.
[6]
Strengthen NADH using a formate dehydrogenase, a method of producing succinic acid in anaerobic conditions, and bio-alcohol is known. Succinic acid can be produced by using a reducing TCA (TCA reverse) path under anaerobic fermentation conditions. NADH has a production amount of succinic acid and direct relevance in the reductive TCA path, oxaloacetic NADH two moles of succinic acid to acetic acid from the path (oxaloacetate) is consumed. When actually enhance the production of succinic acid in anaerobic conditions FDH from glucose it has been reported to increase the yield of 20% or more bars (Appl Environ Microbiol, 2012, 78 (9):. 3325-3337). However, unlike the acid in putrescine biosynthesis NADH is not used as a direct substrate, the bar does not report about the association between a formate dehydrogenase and putrescine production.

With a polynucleotide via a vector for cell insertion mutations within the chromosome of a polynucleotide encoding a protein of interest in the chromosome in one example it can be replaced. Insertion into the chromosome of the above polynucleotides is any method known in the art, for example, but may be made by homologous recombination, but is not limited to this.
[45]
The term "transgenic" herein is meant to allow the protein to the polynucleotide encoding the expression in a host cell by introducing a vector comprising a polynucleotide encoding the target protein in the host cell. If the transformed polynucleotide can be as long as expression in a host cell, is inserted in the chromosome of the host cell may be located, or include both of these positions in addition to the chromosome, or no matter what. In addition, the polynucleotides include DNA and RNA encoding the target protein. The polynucleotide so long as it can be expressed is introduced into a host cell, it does not matter whether it is to be introduced in any form. For example, the polynucleotide may be introduced into a host cell in the form of there is expressed by itself in an expression cassette (cassette expression) gene construct containing all the elements required. The expression cassette may include a promoter that is normally operably linked to the polynucleotide (promoter), a transcription termination signal, ribosome binding site and translation termination signal. The expression cassette may be an expression vector form a self-replicable. In addition, the polynucleotide is introduced into a host cell in the form of itself, and may be, which is possibly connected with the operation sequence necessary for the expression in a host cell, and the like.

Example 3: Activity of four Corey CbFdh at tumefaciens spp
[85]
[86]
CbFdh is analyzed formic acid concentration in the medium was added to formic acid (formic acid) to confirm that the inserted Corynebacterium formic acid decarboxylase enzyme activity of Solarium sp (Fig. 3). CbFdh is a 0 g / ℓ, 2 g / ℓ, formic acid 10 g / ℓ concentration in the culture solution of the strain with the empty vector inserted enhanced strain was added to the culture medium. Enhanced strain and empty vector inserted strain was used KCCM11240P / pSCEC_CJ7_CbFdh and KCCM11240P / pSCEC_CJ7.
[87]
In the case of the strain containing the empty vector culture results, it was confirmed that formic acid will remain in the culture solution when a 2 g / ℓ and 10 g / ℓ of formic acid was added. While strains CbFdh the reinforcement was confirmed that all of the decomposition of 2 g / ℓ of formic acid in 24 hours. [0114] In the case of formic acid of 10 g / ℓ added, but not all decomposed in 32 hours, it was confirmed that the continuously formic acid is reduced. The reaction in second 32 hours it was confirmed that the degree of conversion of 80% formic acid compared with the control strain.
[88]
CbFdh enhanced strain by formic acid variation analysis with CbFdh enhanced strain and the control strain culture was found to decompose formic acid. As a result the via was confirmed that the maintain the ability to express the CbFdh is normally introduced into the Corynebacterium sp.
[89]

Example 4: Enhanced CbFdh putrescine-producing ability evaluation of novel strain
[91]
[92]
CbFdh enhanced putrescine four of the four kinds of production in order to evaluate the production performance of the novel strain Corey tumefaciens glutamicum mutant (KCCM11240P / pSCEC_CJ7_CbFdh, KCCM11240P / pSCEC_CJ7 , KCCM11401P / pSCEC_CJ7_CbFdh, KCCM11401P / pSCEC_CJ7) containing each 1 mM arginine CM plate medium (glucose 1%, polypeptone 1% , yeast extract 0.5%, beef extract 0.5%, NaCl 0.25%, urea 0.2%, 50% NaOH 100 ㎕, 50 μg spectinomycin, agar 2%, pH 6.8, 1 ℓ and plated on standard) it was incubated at 30 ℃ for 24 hours. Each strain cultured therefrom titer medium (Glucose 8% of 25 ㎖, Soy Protein 0.25%, corn solids 0.50% (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 4% KH 2 PO 4 0.1%, MgSO 4 · 7H 2 O 0.05%, urea 0.15%, biotin 100 ㎍, thiamine hydrochloride 3 mg, calcium pantothenate 3 mg, nicotinamide 3 mg, CaCO 3 5%, 50 ㎍ spectinomycin, 1 ℓ basis) a platinum as after 200 rpm them at 30 ℃ inoculated so on, in the case of KCCM11240P / pSCEC_CJ7_CbFdh and KCCM11240P / pSCEC_CJ7 strains 98 hours, KCCM11401P / pSCEC_CJ7_CbFdh and KCCM11401P / pSCEC_CJ7 strain for cultured with shaking for 104 hours.
[93]
Measuring the concentration of putrescine produced from each of the cultures, and the results are shown in Table 1 below.
[94]
[95]
TABLE 1
Strain name The amount of formic acid (g / ℓ) Putrescine (g / ℓ)
KCCM11240P/pSCEC_CJ7 0 12.2
KCCM11240P/pSCEC_CJ7 5 12.3
KCCM11240P/pSCEC_CJ7_CbFdh 0 13.4
KCCM11240P/pSCEC_CJ7_CbFdh 5 13.1
KCCM11401P/pSCEC_CJ7 0 11.4
KCCM11401P/pSCEC_CJ7 5 10.7
KCCM11401P/pSCEC_CJ7_CbFdh 0 12.0
KCCM11401P/pSCEC_CJ7_CbFdh 5 12.0
[96]
[97]
Putrescine concentration in the culture broth was analyzed by HPLC. As shown in Table 1, KCCM11240P / For pSCEC_CJ7 strain did not putrescine production amount greatly changes depending on the presence or absence of 5 g / ℓ of formic acid. On the other hand KCCM11240P / pSCEC_CJ7_CbFdh the introduced strain was confirmed that the increase in the KCCM11240P / pSCEC_CJ7 strain compared to production, regardless of 5g / ℓ or without formic acid over 7%. Regardless of the presence of formic acid it was confirmed that the Pew increase production of gods Trail Fdh enhanced strains.
[98]
In the case of the KCCM11401P / pSCEC_CJ7 strain evaluated in the same medium without formic acid addition 11.4 g / ℓ of putrescine was god production, the strains yields reduced by 6% cultured on of 5 g / ℓ of formic acid was added culture medium (10.7 g / ℓ) was found to be. On the other hand, it was confirmed that the putrescine god produced (12.0 g / ℓ) in the case of KCCM11401P / pSCEC_CJ7_CbFdh CbFdh the same strain is enhanced regardless of the existence of the amount of formic acid. KCCM11401P / pSCEC_CJ7_CbFdh strain and KCCM11401P / pSCEC_CJ7 when analyzed put the production of putrescine from the strain, the strain is enhanced CbFdh was confirmed to be more than 5% of putrescine production increase than KCCM11401P / pSCEC_CJ7. Irrespective of the presence of formic acid was confirmed that the strain CbFdh enhance the production capability increased putrescine.
[99]
[100]
Taken together, the above results, putrescine formate dehydrogenase (CbFdh) the transduction switch isolates the producing strain was confirmed to further increase the putrescine production, which is the effect appears regardless of the addition of Status of formic acid. Thus, it is expected to mass-produce putrescine efficiently through the present application.
