A METHOD FOR PRODUCING AN L-AMINO ACID USING A BACTERIUM OF THE ENTEROBACTERIACEAE FAMILY WHICH HAS BEEN MODIFIED TO ABOLISH CURLI FORMATION

摘要

The present invention provides a method for producing an L-amino acid using a bacterium of the Enterobacteriaceae family, particularly a bacterium belonging to the genus Escherichia or Pantoea, which has been modified to abolish curli formation, particularly, by attenuation of expression of the csgBAC and/or csgDEFG operons.
