Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing an amino acid comprising culturing a microorganism of the genus Corynebacterium or Brevibacterium wherein said microorganism is partially or completely deficient in at least one of the gene loci of the group which is formed by otsAB, treZ and treS, and subsequent isolation of the amino acid from the culture medium.
Claims7
A method for producing an amino acid comprising culturing a microorganism of the genus Corynebacterium or Brevibacterium wherein said microorganism is partially or completely deficient in at least one of the gene loci selected from the group consisting of treZ and treS, and isolating the amino acid from the culture medium.
A method as in any preceding claim, wherein the amino acid is selected from the group consisting of lysine, threonine, methionine and glutamate.
