Abstract
L-Lysine is produced by culturing in a medium a Vibrio bacterium which has an ability to produce L-lysine, and has been modified so that an activity of a protein encoded by the fucO gene is reduced to produce and accumulate L-lysine in the medium or cells of the bacterium, and collecting L-lysine from the medium or cells.

A method for producing L-lysine, which comprises:
- a) culturing a Vibrio bacterium having an ability to produce L-lysine in a medium to produce and accumulate L-lysine in the medium or cells of the bacterium, and
- b) collecting L-lysine from the medium or cells, wherein the Vibrio bacterium has been modified so that an activity of a protein encoded by the fucO gene is reduced.
A Vibrio bacterium which has an ability to produce L-lysine, and has been modified so that an activity of a protein encoded by the fucO gene is reduced.
