Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A modified microorganism for high efficient production of lactic acid, an expression vector for constructing the modified microorganism, and a method of producing a lactic acid using the same are disclosed. The modified microorganism may produce lactic acid at a high level under acid conditions.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A modified microorganism for production of lactic acid that expresses at least one heterologous lactate dehydrogenase (“LDH”) enzyme with at least about 95% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 6. 2. The modified microorganism of claim 1 , wherein the modified microorganism is selected from the group consisting of yeast and bacteria. 3. The modified microorganism of claim 2 , wherein the modified microorganism is Zymomona…
