Production of Succinic Acid from Amino Acids in .

Glutamate (Glu) and aspartate (Asp) are the most abundant amino acids in various sources of protein waste, recognized as a sustainable resource. In this study, was engineered to produce succinic acid (SA) from Glu and Asp. Succinate dehydrogenase involved in the tricarboxylic acid was inactivated in the Glu-utilizing strain.
