A method for optical resolution of DL-lysine alkyl ester or acid-addition salts thereof by contacting an aqueous solution of the ester or salts thereof with a non-specific protease obtained by culturing bacteria belonging to the genus Streptomyces, e.g. St. griseus, at weakly acidic pH and a temperature not exceeding 60.degree. C until 60 - 90% by weight of L-lysine ester or acid-addition salts thereof takes part in a reaction, and recovering L-lysine or acid-addition salts thereof thus produced by a conventional manner.
