Abstract

The invention relates to the directed evolution of CYP52A12 gene and the use thereof for the production of a dicarboxylic acid. In particular, it relates to a method of preparing a long chain dicarboxylic acid producing strain by using directed evolution and homologous recombination, a strain obtained by the method that is capable of producing a long chain dicarboxylic acid under an acidic condition and the use thereof. In particular, the invention relates to a method of preparing a long chain dicarboxylic acid producing strain by directed evolution of CYP52A12 gene and homologous recombination, a strain obtained by the method that is capable of producing a long chain dicarboxylic acid under an acidic condition and the use thereof. By directed evolution of CYP52A12 gene, one strain which has a base mutation at the promoter region of said gene and is capable of producing a long chain dicarboxylic acid under an acidic condition in a shortened fermentation time is screened out in the invention.
