| Title | High-Level folate production in fermented foods by the B12 producer Lactobacillus reuteri JCM1112. |
| Journal | Appl Environ Microbiol |
| Abstract |
We observed that Lactobacillus reuteri JCM1112 produces B(12) and folate. However, the folate/B(12) mass ratio found was far below that desired for human consumption ( approximately 170:1). We used metabolic engineering applying genetic and physiological approaches to improve this ratio and developed a generic and natural process that significantly increases folate production. |
