Process for the fermentative preparation of organic chemical compounds using coryneform bacteria in which the SugR gene is present in attenuated form

Simple SummaryContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

This patent describes a genetically modified coryneform bacterium in which the SugR gene, responsible for regulating certain metabolic processes, is weakened (attenuated). This modification allows the bacterium to more efficiently produce and secrete organic chemical compounds through fermentation processes.
