Abstract
The present invention relates to an improved method for the bioconversion of a fermentable carbon source to glycolic acid by a recombinant microorganism bearing new genetic modifications such as ΔldhA, ΔmgsA, ΔarcA, and ΔlldP, ΔglcA, ΔyjcG and combination of them allowing a production with higher yield, titer and productivity.
