PROCESS FOR PRODUCING PRENYL ALCOHOL

摘要

The present invention provides a method of producing a prenyl alcohol, comprising creating a recombinant obtained by transferring into a host a recombinant DNA for expression or a DNA fragment for genomic integration each comprising: (i) a hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase gene, an isopentenyl-diphosphate DELTA -isomerase gene or a farnesyl-diphosphate synthase gene, or a mutant of any one of these genes, (ii) a transcription promoter, and (iii) a transcription terminator; culturing the recombinant; and recovering the prenyl alcohol from the resultant culture.
