Disclosed are a genetically modified microorganism with an ability to produce 3-hydroxyadipic acid, α-hydromuconic acid, and/or adipic acid in high yield, and a method of producing 3-hydroxyadipic acid, α-hydromuconic acid, and/or adipic acid by using the genetically modified microorganism. The genetically modified microorganism has an ability to produce 3-hydroxyadipic acid, α-hydromuconic acid, and/or adipic acid and is deficient in the function of pyruvate kinase, in which the activities of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and of an enzyme that catalyzes the reaction of reducing 3-oxoadipyl-CoA to 3-hydroxyadipyl-CoA are enhanced. |
