Abstract
The present disclosure relates to the technical fields of genetic engineering and microbial fermentation, and discloses a recombinant strain for producing L-lactic acid, wherein the recombinant strain is obtained by genetically modifying a starting strain, the activity of D-lactate dehydrogenase of the recombinant strain is weakened or inactivated, and the activity of L-lactate dehydrogenase is enhanced, as compared with the starting strain. The present invention can significantly improve the fermentation effect, the yield of the L-lactic acid and the optical purity of the product L-lactic acid.
