Abstract

The L-lysine productivity of an L-lysine producing Coryneform bacterium is enhanced by amplifying a novel gene derived from a Coryneform bacterium and participating in L-glutamic acid production, while the L-glutamic acid productivity of an L-glutamic acid-producing Coryneform bacterium is enhanced by suppressing the function of the gene.
