Microorganism of the genus Corynebacterium producing l-lysine and a method for producing l-lysine using the same

A method for producing L-lysine, comprising:

• culturing an L-lysine producing microorganism of the genus Corynebacterium, having an improved activity of a protein consisting of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:
• 1 compared to its endogenous activity, in a medium;
• and recovering L-lysine from the cultured microorganism or medium thereof, wherein the improved activity is selected from the group consisting of:
• (1) an increased copy number of a polynucleotide encoding SEQ ID NO:
• 1;
• (2) increased expression of SEQ ID NO:
• 1 by modification of an expression regulatory sequence, (3) on a chromosome, modification of the expression regulatory sequence or introduction of an alternative expression regulatory sequence so that protein activity of SEQ ID NO:
• 1 is enhanced compared to prior to the modification, (4) codon optimization of the polynucleotide encoding SEQ ID NO:
• 1, and (5) combinations thereof;
• and wherein the improved activity of said SEQ ID NO:
• 1 results in increased L-lysine production in said Corynebacterium compared to an L-lysine producing Corynebacterium that is not modified to have said improved activity.
