Title:
MICROORGANISMS PRODUCING DOCOSAHEXAENOIC ACID AND UTILIZATION THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/112574
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided are: a microorganism belonging to the genus Aurantiochytrium, said microorganism having an 18S rRNA gene having a base sequence represented by any of SEQ ID NOS:1-5; Aurantiochytrium sp. OH4 strain; a microorganism which is a variant obtained using any of the aforesaid microorganisms as a parent strain and has a higher DHA productivity than the parent strain; or Aurantiochytrium sp. LTR23 strain. Also provided are methods for producing a DHA-containing composition, DHA and a DHA alkyl ester via fermentation using these microorganisms.
