Abstract
A method for producing an L-amino acid of glutamate family such as L-glutamic acid is provided. An L-amino acid of glutamate family is produced by culturing a coryneform bacterium having an ability for producing an L-amino acid of glutamate family, which has been modified so that the activity of an α-ketoglutaric acid (α-KG) uptake carrier is increased, in a medium, and collecting the L-amino acid of glutamate family from the medium.
