ABSTRACT:
Fumaric acid is produced by reacting a culture of a microorganism which produces maleate isomerase that exhibits a maximum activity at not less than 50.degree. C. or a treated product thereof with maleic acid in an aqueous solution, and isomerizing maleic acid to produce fumaric acid. L-aspartic acid is produced by reacting both of a culture of a microorganism which produces maleate isomerase or a treated product thereof and a culture of a microorganism which produces aspartase or a treated product thereof with maleic acid and ammonia in an aqueous solution, producing L-aspartic acid from maleic acid and ammonia by enzyme reactions, and recovering L-aspartic acid from the reaction mixture.
