METHOD FOR PRODUCING HYDROXY-L-LYSINE EMPLOYING AN L-LYSINE HYDROXYLASE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING HYDROXY-L-PIPECOLIC ACID

摘要

The present invention aims to provide a method for efficiently producing hydroxy-L-lysine. The present invention provides a method for producing hydroxy-L-lysine, the method comprising allowing 2-oxoglutarate-dependent L-lysine hydroxylase, a cell containing 2-oxoglutarate-dependent L-lysine hydroxylase, a processed product of the cell, and/or a culture broth obtained by culturing the cell, to act on L-lysine to produce hydroxy-L-lysine represented by the following General Formula (I) (wherein each of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 represents a hydrogen atom or hydroxyl group, with the proviso that at least one of R 1 , R 2 and R 3 represents a hydroxyl group).
