Abstract
Provided is a microorganism that is capable of efficiently producing para-aminobenzoic acid (4-ABA) or a salt thereof, using saccharides as raw materials, and a method for efficiently producing 4-ABA or a salt thereof by using this microorganism. A transformant obtained by introducing, into a coryneform bacterium, a gene that encodes 4-amino-4-deoxychorismate lyase, a gene that encodes a para-aminobenzoate synthase component I, and a gene that encodes a para-aminobenzoate synthase component II, is capable of efficiently producing 4-ABA or a salt thereof from saccharides.
