Method for preparing various lactam

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a recombinant microorganism having a lactam production capacity from an omega-amino acid, into which a gene encoding a beta-alanine coenzyme A transferase on a microorganism which has an omega-amino acid biosynthetic metabolic pathway inherently or an omega-amino acid biosynthetic metabolic pathway is introduced, and a method for producing a variety of lactams and omega-amino acyl-CoAs using the same. The recombinant microorganism and the method for producing the lactam according to the present disclosure are useful in producing a variety of lactams such as propiolactam, 2-pyrrolidone, valerolactam, caprolactam, and heptanolactam from a variety of omega-amino acids.
