Abstract
Many auxotrophic mutants were obtained from glutamic acid bacteria by UV, Co60 irradiation applying penicillin selection method. Mutants which accumulate ornithine, lysine, valine, homoserine, phenylalanine, diaminopimelic acid, α-aminobutyrate, tyrosine were found. Close relationships between accumulated amino acids and requiring substances were suggested.Lysine accumulating strains obtained in the present study are now being used in commercial production of lysine. The possibility of the application of accumulation of other metabolite by auxotrophs to industrial production was also discussed.
