METHOD FOR PRODUCING 1,5-PENTANEDIAMINE

摘要

Disclosed is a method for producing 1,5-pentanediamine through fermentation using a microorganism, said microorganism having LDC gene in the chromosome and showing regulated secondary production of L-lysine. In the method for producing 1,5-pentanediamine whereby 1,5-pentanediamine is produced by a coryneform bacterium having a gene encoding lysine decarboxylase in the chromosome, said coryneform bacterium continuously maintains a lysine decarboxylase activity of 50 mU/mg protein or greater during the culture.
