Abstract
The present invention relates to a microorganism belonging to the genus Escherichia sp. and a method for producing L-amino acid using the same. The microorganism belonging to the genus Escherichia sp. has a sucrose assimilability and L-amino acid producing ability, which is obtained by introducing a gene encoding a sucrose assimilative microorganism-derived sucrose metabolic enzyme to sucrose non-assimilative microorganism belonging to the genus Escherichia sp. having an L-amino acid producing ability and sucrose PTS (phosphoenolpyruvate dependent sucrose phosphotransferase system) activity.
