Dealing with microbial production of L-amino acids, this volume presents five comprehensive review articles on the modern production of amino acids by application of biotechnologically optimized micro-organisms. This includes not only the modern techniques of enzyme, metabolic and transport engineering but also sophisticated analytical methods such as metabolic flux analysis and subsequent pathway modeling. A general review about industrial processes of amino acid production provides a comprehensive overview about recent strain development as well as fermentation technologies. The authors...
