Abstract
The present invention provides a method for producing an L-amino acid using a bacterium of the Enterobacteriaceae family, particularly a bacterium belonging to genus Escherichia or Pantoea, which has been modified to attenuate expression of a gene coding for sRNA.
Claims3
A method for producing an L-amino acid comprising:
- cultivating an Escherichia coli in a medium, and
- collecting said L-amino acid from the medium, wherein said Escherichia coli has been modified to attenuate expression of micF gene, wherein said L-amino acid is selected from the group consisting of L-threonine, L-lysine, and combinations thereof.
