Abstract
Disclosed are a recombinant microorganism capable of producing methyl anthranilate, wherein the recombinant microorganism is obtained by introducing an aamt1 gene into a microorganism having the capacity to produce anthranilic acid (ANT), and a method of producing methyl anthranilate using the same. The recombinant microorganism is capable of producing methyl anthranilate using only a purely biological process from renewable carbon-circulating biomass without chemical catalytic reaction, thus having an advantage of enabling mass production of high value-added methyl anthranilate in a very economical manner based on an environmentally friendly and simple production process.
