Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for producing fermentation product from various carbon sources containing glycerol using Corynebacteria. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method for producing fermentation product from carbon sources containing glycerol or a part of glycerol with high yield and high productivity, by fermenting Corynebacteria introduced with the foreign gene glpDFK facilitating the use of glycerol and accumulating industrially useful amino acids in the culture medium.
