METHOD FOR PRODUCING ISOBUTANOL AND RECOMBINANT MICROORGANISM CAPABLE OF PRODUCING ISOBUTANOL

摘要

This invention is intended to produce isobutanol with excellent productivity via a fermentation process. A reaction in which NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase generates NADPH from NADP is used as a source of NADPH for the reaction of converting 2-acetolactate into 2,3-dihydroxy-isovalerate in the isobutanol biosynthesis pathway.
