AN L-GLUTAMIC ACID PRODUCING BACTERIUM AND A METHOD FOR PRODUCING L-GLUTAMIC ACID

摘要

An L-glutamic acid producing bacterium which belongs to the genus Pantoea, Enterobacter, Klebsiella or Erwinia, wherein the bacterium has been modified by gene recombination to inactivate the rpoS gene, is cultured in a medium to cause accumulation of L-glutamic acid in the medium, and L-glutamic acid is collected from the medium.
