The present invention relates to polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase (PHA
synthase) mutant originated from Pseudomonas sp. 6-19 (KCTC 11027BP)
which can prepare lactate polymer and/or copolymer by using lactyl-CoA as
a substrate. The present invention relates to a method for preparing
lactate polymer and/or copolymer with the synthase mutant. The
polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase mutants of the present invention originated
from Pseudomonas sp. 6-19 can efficiently prepare lactate polymer and/or
copolymer by using as a substrate lactyl-CoA which is difficult to be
used as a substrate by conventional polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase.
