Abstract

The present invention relates to an L-arginine producing mutant strain, and a method for fabricating the same. In particular, the present invention relates to a polynucleotide comprising an argD2 gene (Ncgl2355) that is a putative gene of acetylornithine aminotransferase involved in arginine biosynthesis of, a polypeptide encoded by the polynucleotide, a recombinant vector comprising the polynucleotide, a transformant capable of producing L-arginine in a high yield, which is prepared by introducing the recombinant vector into an L-arginine producing host microorganism to overexpress the argD2 gene, and a method for producing L-arginine by culturing the transformant. The transformant of the present invention overexpresses the argD2 gene to produce L-arginine in a high yield, thereby being used in medicinal and pharmaceutical industries.
