Abstract
Uridine-5′-monophosphate is produced by cultivating in a nutrient medium an uridine-5′-monophosphate producing mutant of coryneform bacterium and which is characterized by at least a resistance to growth inhibition by pyrimidine analogue or a deficiency in uridine degrading activity or combination of said property by protoplast fusion. This method has the advantage of decreased production of uracil. Thus, uridine-5′-monophosphate can be produced in much greater yields, compared with known methods.
