Abstract

A method of screening a high L-tryptophan-producing microorganism using a riboswitch is provided. More particularly, a riboswitch for screening a high L-tryptophan-producing microorganism including a tryptophan aptamer, a DNA sequence consisting of 1 to 20 nucleotides and a selectable marker gene, and a method of screening a high L-tryptophan-producing microorganism using the same are provided. The riboswitch and the method of screening a high L-tryptophan-producing microorganism using the same can be useful in selecting a strain producing a high concentration of L-tryptophan in a relatively quick and easy manner, and thus enhancing price competitiveness of tryptophan production using microorganisms.
