- the present invention relates to D-xylose utilization technology. More specifically, the present invention relates to a coryneform bacterium transformant that has been subjected to a specific genetic manipulation in order to improve D-xylose utilization function, and a technique for producing a highly efficient organic compound thereby.
- Cellulosic biomass is useful as a raw material for producing various organic acid compounds, ethanol, and the like by biological methods.
- Cellulosic biomass unlike sugar-based biomass such as corn starch and sugar, can be obtained in a wide variety of inexpensive forms such as agricultural waste or wooden waste, and will be an obstacle to securing food resources in the future. This is because it is a raw material species that must not be released.
- Cellulosic biomass consists of approximately 35% to 45% cellulose, 30% to 40% hemicellulose, 10% lignin and 10% other components by weight.
- Cellulose is a polymer of glucose (hexose).
- pentoses such as xylose and arabinose are main components.
- D-xylose accounts for the majority of hemicelluloses of cellulosic biomass such as corn stover, wheat straw, rice straw, and bagasse. Therefore, in order to effectively use cellulosic biomass, it is indispensable to establish a highly efficient technique for using D-xylose by a biological method.
- Saccharomyces cerevisiae which cannot use D-xylose in the wild type, is derived from Pichia stipitis, xylose reductase gene and xylitol dehydrogenase gene, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

- pentose simultaneous utilization to hexose has been achieved to some extent, the consumption rate (utilization rate) of D-xylose is insufficient compared with the consumption rate of D-glucose, and it is practically used. Further improvement is required as a technique for simultaneous use of hexose and pentose in a typical sense.
- Non-patent document 3 and non-patent document 4 indicate that a microorganism having the simultaneous utilization of D-glucose and D-xylose can be obtained by destroying the ptsG (glucose phosphotransferase system (PTS) transport) gene involved in glucose uptake.
- PTS glucose phosphotransferase system
- Corynebacterium glutamicum and its recombinant strains can produce organic compounds without growth in the bioconversion reaction from sugars to organic compounds such as organic acids under reducing conditions. It is a microorganism useful for effective use (Patent Document 4).
- Patent Document 4 since a reactor volume for growth is not required, a compact reactor design is possible.

It is released and D-glucose and L-arabinose can be used at the same time. However, as described above, glucose suppression on D-xylose utilization in the presence of both D-glucose and D-xylose is completely released, and D-xylose and D-glucose are efficiently used in parallel and simultaneously. A corynebacterium transformant that can be produced has not yet been developed.
