ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses a method for producing a target substance using a coryneform bacterium comprising culturing a coryneform bacterium having an ability to produce the target substance in a medium, resulting in accumulation of the target substance in the medium or cells of the bacterium, and collecting the target substance from the medium or the cells of the bacterium. Also disclosed is a coryneform bacterium which is introduced with a methanol dehydrogenase gene and which has enhanced activities of hexulose phosphate synthase and phosphohexuloisomerase, and to which an ability to utilize methanol is imparted or which has enhanced ability to utilize methanol, and the medium contains methanol as a carbon source.
