Abstract

D-lactic acid, as an important synthetic precursor of many Chiral compounds, is widely used in chemical industry, agriculture, food industry, medicine industry, environmental protection field, and so on. Recently, the application of molecular biotechnology in D-lactate production has attracted increasing attention with the development of genetic engineering technology. In this paper, the progress in the modification of D-lactate-producing strain by genetic engineering technology is summarized, and the prospects for research trends are made.
