Method for the production of L-lysine employing thermophilic corynebacterium thermoaminogenes

摘要

L-lysine is produced by culturing, in a medium, an L-lysine-producing mutant which belongs to the genus Corynebacterium thermoaminogenes which is capable of growing at 40 DEG C. or higher and which has resistance to S-(2-aminoethyl)-L-cysteine thereby producing and accumulating L-lysine in the culture medium, and collecting L-lysine from the culture medium.
