Microbial production of L-lysine: a review.
Microbial production of L-lysine has been reviewed with 251 references. The review includes different lysine producing microorganisms, their optimum cultural conditions, yield, assay and process of product recovery. It includes a discussion on the pathway of aspartate family of amino acid's biosynthesis in bacteria and its regulation. Achievements in this regard made through genetic engineering have also been included.
