Abstract

The present invention provides nucleotide sequences coding for acetohydroxy acid synthetase (AHAS) mutants, the mutated enzymes themselves and a process for the fermentative production of branched-chain amino acids using these enzymes in specific hosts in which genes which code for the modified acetohydroxy acid synthetase (AHAS) are expressed.
