Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a microorganism that efficiently produces a PUFA and a method for producing a PUFA using the microorganism. The present invention relates to a microorganism capable of producing a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), in which a gene encoding an exogenous polyketide synthase dehydratase (PS-DH) domain having a higher activity against 3-hydroxyhexanoyl acyl carrier protein (3-hydroxyhexanoyl ACP) than an endogenous FabA-like β-hydroxyacyl-ACP dehydratase (FabA-DH) domain has been introduced into a microorganism having a PUFA metabolic pathway, and the like.
