Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a mutant microorganism in which a glycerol catabolic pathway and a 1,3-PDO biosynthetic pathway are introduced into a microorganism incapable of using glycerol as a carbon source, and a method of producing 1,3-PDO using the same. According to the present disclosure, it is possible to produce 1,3-PDO while growing a mutant microorganism having 1,3-PDO production ability by using the inexpensive raw material glycerol as a single carbon source. Thus, the present disclosure is useful for the economical production of 1,3-PDO.
