Zusammenfassung:[Problem] To provide a method for industrially producing a scyllo-inositol in a one-step process, from ubiquitous and inexpensive raw materials such as glucose or similar. Furthermore, to provide a new scyllo-inositol derivative obtained by means of said method. [Solution] Scyllo-inositol is produced by one-step fermentation of glucose by a transformed microorganism containing an inositol-1-phosphate synthase gene, an inositol-mono-phosphatase gene, a myo-inositol-dehydrogenase gene and a scyllo-inositol-dehydrogenase gene. Also provided is a scyllo-inositol derivative bonded to saccharides such as glucose and similar, obtained by said fermentation.
