Abstract:
The capacity for alkane synthesis is to be significantly improved with the use of an acyl-ACP reductase gene and a decarbonylase gene derived from blue-green algae. A recombinant microorganism comprising, as foreign genes, an acyl-ACP reductase gene and a decarbonylase gene derived from blue-green algae comprises 4 types of ferredoxin genes and 3 types of ferredoxin reductase genes derived from blue-green algae in predetermined combinations.

Claim (Index 1):
A recombinant microorganism comprising, as foreign genes, an acyl-ACP reductase gene and a decarbonylase gene derived from blue-green algae,\n provided that 4 types of blue-green algae-derived ferredoxin genes are designated as the FD gene 1, the FD gene 2, the FD gene 3, and the FD gene 4 and 3 types of blue-green algae-derived ferredoxin reductase genes are designated as the FDR gene 1, the FDR gene 2, and the FDR gene 3, the recombinant microorganism capable of synthesizing alkane comprises a ferredoxin gene and a ferredoxin reductase gene in the combination as described below: the FD gene 1 in combination with the FDR gene 1; the FD gene 1 in combination with the FDR gene 2; the FD gene 2 in combination with the FDR gene 1; the FD gene 2 in combination with the FDR gene 2; the FD gene 2 in combination with the FDR gene 3; the FD gene 3 in combination with the FDR gene 2 the FD gene 3 in combination with the FDR gene 3; the FD gene 4 in combination with the FDR gene 1; or the FD gene 4 in combination with the FDR gene 2, wherein the FD gene 1 encodes a protein [a1] or [b1]: [a1] a protein comprising the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 2; or [b1] a protein comprising an amino acid sequence having identity of higher than 61.2% to the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 2 and functioning as ferredoxin, wherein the FD gene 2 encodes a protein [a2] or [b2]: [a2] a protein comprising the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 4; or [b2] a protein comprising an amino acid sequence having identity of higher than 60% to the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 4 and functioning as ferredoxin, wherein the FD gene 3 encodes a protein [a3] or [b3]: [a3] a protein comprising the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 6; or [b3] a protein comprising an amino acid sequence having identity of higher than 62.9% to the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 6 and functioning as ferredoxin, wherein the FD gene 4 encodes a protein [a4] or [b4]: [a4] a protein comprising the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 8; or [b4] a protein comprising an amino acid sequence having identity of higher than 62.3% to the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 8 and functioning as ferredoxin, wherein the FDR gene 1 encodes a protein [c1] or [d1]: [c1] a protein comprising the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 10; or [d1] a protein comprising an amino acid sequence having identity of 60% or higher to the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 10 and functioning as ferredoxin reductase, wherein the FDR gene 2 encodes a protein [c2] or [d2]: [c2] a protein comprising the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 12; or [d2] a protein comprising an amino acid sequence having identity of 60% or higher to the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 12 and functioning as ferredoxin reductase, and wherein the FDR gene 3 encodes a protein [c3] or [d3]: [c3] a protein comprising the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 14; or [d3] a protein comprising an amino acid sequence having identity of 60% or higher to the amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 14 and functioning as ferredoxin reductase.
