Recombinant DNA having a phosphoenol pyruvate carboxylase gene inserted therein, bacteria carrying said recombinant DNA and a process for producing amino acids using said bacteria.

摘要

A recombinant DNA molecule comprising a plasmid vector having operationally inserted therein a gene coding for phosphoenol pyruvate carboxylase is disclosed along with bacteria containing this recombinant DNA molecule and methods of using these bacteria to produce amino acids in large quantities.
