INCREASING METHIONINE PRODUCTION BY OVEREXPRESSING SUCCINATE DEHYDROGENASE

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for improving the production of methionine by culturing a microorganism modified for enhancing the expression of genes involved in succinate dehydrogenase synthesis. The microorganisms were modified in a way that the methionine/carbon source yield is increased. The isolation of methionine from the fermentation medium is also claimed.
