Abstract
Disclosed are coryneform L-glutamic acid-producing bacteria deficient in .alpha.-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, a method of producing L-glutamic acid by using the bacteria, a gene coding for an enzyme having .alpha.-KGDH activity originating from coryneform L-glutamic acid-producing bacteria, recombinant DNA containing the gene, coryneform bacteria harboring the recombinant DNA, and a method of producing L-lysine by using bacteria harboring the recombinant DNA and having L-lysine productivity.
