Abstract
The invention relates to recombinant microorganisms in which polynucleotides which code for lysine decarboxylase are enhanced and, using which, cadaverine (1,5-diaminopentane) is produced fermentatively, with the carbon source used preferably being renewable raw materials such as, for example, glucose, sucrose, molasses and the like.
